    This is a great school. They offer so tools for success and they are constantly adding new academic programs. The professors have various ways to communicate and ask for help, whether it be during class, office hours, or email. Some professors have apps that remind us of assignment due dates or any important upcoming changes. There are countless resources such as FREE tutoring on campus and online, library, private study rooms, WiFi, printing, and so much more. What was one of the key factors for attending HGTC, for the programs that have specific requirements to be met before being accepted into a specific program of study, they have a larger staff which means they can accept more students into the program. Awesome, right! HGTC also has some many clubs and other organizations, for academics, heritage, culture, and sports. 3 campuses and online classes!

    I have been going to Horry Georgetown Technical College for about 2 years now. I love the campus, it is a very beautiful and well kept. Also who doesn't love an on campus starbucks. Starbucks has every snack you can image and if that's not going to satisfy your belly, then our on campus cafe should. Everyday there is a different menu. Our professors are also outstanding. They will do just about anything to help you succeed. There is a tutoring center to help you with any assignment or class lesson you need improving on.
