Advising

Enrollment Services

Enrollment Services is located in the Dreisbach/Anderson Student Success Center (Barton Campus, Building 102). This area provides assistance to new students that may have questions or concerns before they register for their semester courses. Enrollment Specialists will register non-degree-seeking students (transient, career development and early college students).

Enrollment Specialists are available during business hours to advise new students who are planning to attend or reapply to Greenville Technical College. Enrollment Services serves students on a walk-in basis or by appointment. During peak registration periods (week prior to opening of semester classes), students will be seen on a walk-in basis only.

Right Start Advising 

All new students with 18 credit hours or less are advised by Right Start Advisors as they prepare for their first semester at Greenville Technical College. New students with 19 credit hours or more are advised by advisors in their School Advising Center. In addition, new students pursuing programs located at a satellite campus are advised by a satellite advisor.

Advisors orient, advise, and register new students using Appreciative Advising practices, which means that we take time to learn each student’s story and what they hope to accomplish in college and beyond. Additionally, the student will enroll in a major-related Freshman Seminar course and receive a Student Success Guide with a directory of college resources and important dates. An academic advisor will be assigned to each new student at the conclusion of the meeting.

The Right Start Advisors are located at the Dreisbach/Anderson Student Success Center on the Barton Campus.
