    Tips for prospective students

    A tip that i would give future students of this school would be to begin your process very early because there are a number of thlings that need to be completed before you can begin attending college.

    Greenville Tech is very strict when it comes to maintaining a certain academic level. I think that this is very important because it shows the students that someone really cares.

    Greenville Tech offers incredible training for any given Major, and well-prepares students for their future careers. They have phenomenal instructors who truly care for their work and their students, the materials and in-class discussions are is engaging, and the faculty incredibly friendly. To top it off, this incredible experience is INCREDIBLY affordable on almost all budgets! Nothing beats Greenville Tech in price-range, quality of academics, and friendly atmosphere!
    Tips for prospective students

    Be sure to speak to some current/previous students of Greenville Tech. They will tell you who the best instructors are for a given course. Also, take full advantage of the guidance counselors! They're PAID to help you, and they'll answer any questions you may have!
    Academic Rigor

    Greenville Tech's course work is no easy A, but you'll definitely benefit from the challenge. In addition, the teachers all expect great work from each student, and are willing to help you do your best work.

    Bang for the buck

    Greenville Tech is an absolute STEAL as far as affordability goes! Tuition is incredibly low, especially for the level and quality of education you gain!
    Great for these types of students

    Greenville Tech offers all of the necessary tools for success, but it's up to the student to use it. A dedicated, serious student is best suited for this school. In addition, prospective students who aren't exactly sure what they want to do with their life or career but want to try something will benefit greatly from attending Greenville Tech. This school is also great for those who are financially hurting but still want to acquire a quality high-level education. Lastly, for those seeking to eventually transfer to a 4-year university, Greenville Tech is for you! They have excellent transfer programs, and since Tech is a highly accredited school, credits earned there will transfer to most any 4-year college.
    Clubs and Activities

    I have not participated in any of the clubs or activities, but there is an abundance of them, so I'm certain any applicant will find a club or activity they'll enjoy.
    Greek Life

    non applicable
    Campus Safety

    There are always a good number of security staff members roaming the campus to ensure the students' protection. I have yet to hear of any issues arising at the school.

    greenville technical college is a great school that is on par with any four year institution. at greenville tech you get a professional degree with real world experience that anyone can take to the job right out of school. greenville tech is perfect for people that have to work and go to school at the same time.
    Tips for prospective students

    many people think that a four-year degree is the only way to go, but greenville tech gives you the real world experience so don't sell it short.

    Bang for the buck

    this school helps you to get accustomed to college and is very cheap. the college does have some professors who are not very good at what they do and may have been teaching for too long. overall the school is a decent option for those trying to raise their gpa to get into a better school, or for someone who cannot afford to pay the money for a 4 year school all 4 years.
    Tips for prospective students

    make sure you do research and ask around about the professors you are getting. the teacher can be a difference between a good class experience and an a, and a withdrawal halfway through the semester.
    Academic Rigor

    the classes are very easy. the most challenging courses i have taken are the biology courses, but even they do not require intense studying. i have been able to obtain a very good gpa without having to study around the clock.
    Dorm Life

    while i do not live on campus, i have heard many bad things about dorm life from friends who do. they say that there may be as many as 5 roommates in a tiny apartment and that the campus police are obnoxious when it comes to curfews.
    Food and Dining

    the campus does not have many restaurants right around it, but everything you could ask for is about a 5 minute drive away on woodruff rd.
    What to do for fun

    there are not really any extracurricular activities at the moment, but there are some in the works, such as intramural sports. there is a shopping mall that is only minutes away on haywood rd. and there are movie theaters and a bowling alley within a mile from campus.
    Bang for the buck

    while i appreciate the education i am getting, i wish that i had been able to go to a school that challenged me more.
    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    there is a shrine in between the nur and health sciences buildings that was built by exchange students from brazil and egypt.
    Great for these types of students

    this school would be good for students who were not the best in high school but still have dreams of a bachelor's degree. it is a cheap and relatively easy way to get halfway there.
    Clubs and Activities

    the only club that i am a member of is the honor's society phi theta kappa. they have meetings about once a month to discuss current projects that benefit the community.
    Greek Life

    there is no greek life at greenville tech.
    Campus Safety

    the campus police have proven successful at preventing a disaster once since i have been at greenville tech when they prevented a disgruntled student from entering a building with a gun. there have been few instances of violence that i am aware of.

    Am learning a lot

    The small classes allow for more time with the professors. This gives me a chance to ask questions in and out of the classroom.
    Am enjoying being here

    The professors are polite and make each subject interesting. Each campus is small enough that I do not worry about being late or walking long distances to class.
    Bang for the buck

    Many of my friends from high school decided to go to large universities and had to spend much more on their tuition than I did here at Greenville Technical College. I believe I am getting an equal education for a price I can easily afford.
    Tips for prospective students

    Attending a career talk or meeting with future professors may help students make a final decision on whether or not they choose Greenville Technical College. This college focuses on helping people earn a degree and have a career they can be proud of.
    Great for these types of students

    Greenville Technical College is a great choice for students who are looking for a two-year degree or want to transfer to a four-year college later on.
