Greenville technical college is very uplifting like a breath of fresh air. They truly care for the students and the staff is always on their A game. Instructors are wonderful and set aside time to teach students and give them the required tutoring services

Noelle - 02/28/2021

Greenville Tech is a nice small school, if you like that sort of thing. The class sizes are good and are a good student:teacher ratio. But the buildings are pretty plain and not very eye-catching. The parking lot design is confusing and sometimes I park somewhere familiar and just walk to class. Other than that, it's a good small school.

Carson

Greenville Technical College is a great option for those living in the Upstate of South Carolina. You will save a lot of money by attending a junior college before attending a four-year school. In fact, I was basically paid to obtain an associates degree while working at the same time to save for my four-year school. The advisors are not very helpful so you have to help yourself when it comes to picking classes. Overall, I would suggest going to Greenville Tech whether you'd like to transfer after two years, obtain an associates degree, or become certified in various programs they offer.

Nathalie

Greenville Tech is an overall good two-year school. The class sizes are pretty similar to a high school class (20-30 people). The classes are usually enjoyable and teachers usually answer emails quickly, but it depends on the teacher. There are many different people and resources available to assist the students. Overall, it's a good school, and easy to transfer out of.

Greenville Technical College FAQS

    The fall 2020 acceptance rate for Greenville Technical College is 100%. That means, out of _____ applications received in 2020 , _____ students were offered admission. The number of males who applied was _____ vs the number of females which was _____.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    As a high school student I saw college as a reason to move out and have parties every weekend. Now as an actual college student, I’ve learned so many things that I wish I could tell my high school self. The list of things is very long from classes to financial aid; however, I consider that choosing the best career path for you as the most important advice I could give to any high school student. This is because the primary reason to attend college is to obtain a career. I would advise my high school self to take a college skill class, explore what colleges have to offer and look for a career of interest. When searching information about a career take in consideration factors such as pay and job opportunities, but don’t let those be your top priorities. Assure that you choose a career that you enjoy and if you lose interest on the career you picked, don’t be afraid to change your career path. As a college student, it is very probable you’ll change majors at least once. Despite all the reasons there are to assist college, never forget the purpose of it.

  9. What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?

    I do not feel as if I am getting the college experience that I could have at a four year university. I go to class for an hour and then it's over. I leave class thinking "That's it?" I feel as if I am resting on my laurels by robbing myself of the college experience. It's not at all what I expected. College should be a place where you spend alot of time learning and interacting with your peers. During college, you should be pushing yourself to the limit, not the bare minimum.

  11. What kind of person should not attend this school?

    Greenville Technical College is a place to attend when you strictly want to focus on your studies. Greenville Tech is not a place for someone who is going to college to have fun. Yes, they do provide things to attend on campus but they do not give much of a college feel other than the learning aspect. The main reason there isn't a "fun" aspect is because most people who attend GTC don't live on campus. Most of the students commute daily to continue their studies at GTC.
