President Barack Obama’s visit to Atlanta next week will include a stop at Georgia Tech on Tuesday.

The university posted ticket information on Friday about the president's visit to McCamish Pavilion where he is scheduled to deliver remarks. Tickets look to be limited to the Tech community.

The White House announced the trip to Atlanta earlier this week. While here, Obama is also scheduled to attend an event to raise money for the Democratic National Committee.
