Due to variability in preparation programming, transferability at a four-year college or university is subject to individual school approval. Students are responsible for checking with the GTC PATH office and the specific college or university to which they plan to transfer to determine the transferability of any course taken at Greenville Technical College. Please see your advisor to map out your own personalized progression toward graduation.
