Honors Program

The Honors Program is designed to enhance the Greenville Tech experience for bright, highly motivated students. Small, challenging classes encourage interaction between student and instructor, enhance opportunities for independent research and allow the student to pursue individual goals. 

• Current GTC students are eligible to apply for acceptance into the Honors Program if they have a cumulative grade point average of 3.4 or higher and have earned at least nine transferable credit hours. 
• High school students entering Greenville Tech should have a high school GPA of at least 3.5 or a combined score of 1150 or above on the critical reading and math sections of the SAT or 26 on the ACT with two letters of recommendation from individuals familiar with the student’s academic performance, at least one of whom is a high school teacher. 
• To complete the Honors Program requirements, an Honors Program student must take at least six classes with the honors designation, one of which must be an honors seminar. In addition, the honors student will be required to fulfill a community service requirement. 
• Speak with an advisor or contact the Honors Program directly for more information.
