I graduation from the HCI program at Georgia Tech in 2007 and am
pretty fanatical about the education and opportunities I got while
studying there. I can't recommend it enough (I'd be happy to talk
to you more about it off line).

Similar to some of the other programs commenters on this thread
mentioned, you don't need a portfolio to apply for that program. The
curriculum is set up to accomodate three different general 'tracks'
: computer science, digitial media, and psychology / usability,
depending on what your interests/goals are. The idea is that you have
a focus, but can pick classes from each area to round out your skills.
I went in with a computer science undergrad degree -- and no
portfolio, just a carefully written statement of purpose that related
my past experiences and future goals to why I wanted to be in that 
HCI program.

I suppose if you wanted to concentrate on the digital media track,
then a portfolio could be an asset to your application there, but
most likely still not mandatory.
