Calling all high school students and parents of high school students: Looking for a way to get ahead in college or even in your career? Greenville Tech’s Early College program allows students to complete dual credit courses (read: these count for both high school and college credits) while challenging themselves academically.

How can this help students? Getting a few general education requirements or other technical degree prerequisites done while still in high school can help save money, lighten the academic load of freshman year, and provide a first glimpse into what college classes look like. Bonus: GTC Early College students are able to get started in the workforce or enter college, some with associate degrees or certificates, right after high school graduation.

Who can enroll? These classes are for students who attend school in Greenville County; this includes charter schools, private schools, homeschooling, and everyone in between.

Registration for Summer and Fall 2022 classes is now open. Pro tip: Students can coordinate with their academic advisors and counselors on the best classes to take to advance their academic careers.*
