The last three semesters I was there I was in the esthetician program, and it was fantastic. The programs here are tough and challenging, but very rewarding. I love the atmosphere and community they have here
I love my teachers! Everything is great to staff, learning and resources! I have great classes, and even more time to study and get work done.
A like it, my major is small so there's a lot of 1 on 1 time with professors. tuition is pretty low, and the library staff is amazing .
I would like to have more online classes and more class times offered. I work full time, so it is hard to be full time with school too and graduate when others do.
Everyone that I've met so far have been really patient and helpful! From students services, to admissions, financial aid office, and advisors, they have all been quickly available to help navigate my way through the waters of returning to school!
My time spent at Athens Tech has gone well. I wish it was easier to afford my required items for my current program. I know there has to be other students that are wondering how they will be able to afford andpay for all of the required materials for the nursing course.
Albeit the fact that I have unsuccessfully been to many other colleges, I will give credit where credit is due for Athens Technical College. Their enthusiasm for student success is contagious. The resources that are available are endless and the staff in every department go above and beyond. While they cover the many bases that I would look for in a college, it seems that there is an overall lack of student participation in many of the events on campus. This is not for lack of marketing though.
I love that the teachers are very involved. No matter what you have going on in your life they will be there cheering you on and encouraging you to do well in you educational journey as well as your professional. Only down fall is you have to stay on top of the business offices. Things slip through the cracks and i ended up with ZEROS on classes i never even attended. Really hurt my 4.0 GPA.
Athens Tech is a very complex school with it being very wonderful once you get the hang of how they operate but they do not go out of its way as an institution to help you succeed. There are certain professors and programs that will help you more than others and you just have to find your right fit to succeed.
My college is fantastic. All my advisors or my professors are more than willing to give help when I need it. The offices are all conveniently located where as soon as I finish in one office I can go to the next. The campus is not hard to navigate around at all. All the staff and faculty are friendly and willing to help if needed. Overall all great school, great staff, great communication it's wonderful.
I have somewhat enjoyed my time at Athens Technical College! Some of the professors have been outstanding, while others have been a struggle during the semester. I feel that I have received somewhat adequate teaching experience. I am grateful that I have the opportunity to be learning in a new city, and have the opportunities that I do! I will be transferring from ATC to the University of Georgia in the Spring of 2023. That is very exciting!! Overall, I would recommend Athens Technical College to an extent!
Athens Technical college has been a great fit for me. I feel I am getting a great education for my money. I also really like my classmates.
Decent learning environment and some good teachers. You have to make extra sure about time lines, if you try to drop a class before mid semester they may still count it against you even though it says it won’t or if you are having a really issue and can’t continue a class they aren’t every understanding.
What I like with being a student in Athens Tech is that you get excellent help and advice from your instructors, front office, advisors, etc. If you need to ask any questions to your instructor, they will help you as soon as possible as well as 24/7. There are also free help resources like the writing center and math tutoring that can help you through difficult situations. Above all, it's a great campus and I had excellent experience there and I highly recommend it.
Athens tech has many great programs to choose from. Ranging from Dental hygiene to Computer science. They have a library with a lot of resources. The science department needs a little work in regards to instructors, especially the human anatomy instructors. Other than that, it’s a decent school.
I like for the most part, how helpful they are and that they don't force too many required electives on you in order fo you to complete your degree/certification. I just wish that they allowed more transferrable credits so I wouldn't have to take certain classes over again.
I like the size of the college I was hoping that the college would be more "student friendly" but the math lab which I found to be so helpful has been discontinued. This leaves the student with no resource for math tutoring.
Students concerns are not addressed they send you back to speak with the person that you are ready tried to solve the problem with instead of doing their job and fixing the problem. I have attended another technical college in oakwood Georgia which I graduated from in 2005 with no issues. In my opinion this is the worst college to attend and if I had it to do all over again I would not return to school if I had to deal with a college like this one. Please do not waste any money on this school your best bet is to find a different School and if it cost more I promise it will be worth it compared to Athens technical college. The instructors I have encountered only are concerned with having authority over people instead of doing what is best for the students that is essentially paying their income by attending the school. I believe because the instructors have had complete control and allowed to treat students in any manner they see fit with no regard for the students education
I love this school, the teachers make the work interesting so you get excited to go to class everyday!
I love the people, Professors, and staff. They are very supportive and always able to help when You need. I definitely recommend Athens technical college because of how awesome this college is.
