    Overall it’s not too bad. The expense of only being 2 years is certainly outrageous, but the quality of character amongst the staff makes up for it. Sure there are leaky roofs, no air conditioning, plenty of broken practice vehicles/engines but you really get out what you put into it. I come from the food industry and didn’t know a thing about cars but how to put gas and windshield wipers on and so far the experience has taught me a ton. There are some teachers whom are a bit past their time, but if you can keep yourself awake and study on your own time aside from what the professor teaches, it’s well worth it.

    Going to GCIT was the best decision I have ever made. It opened up a whole new area of interest when it came to the welding program. It inspired me to do my very best. I made great friends and learned more than I would have in any normal high school. My welding instructor became one of my biggest role models. There is a wide array of programs you could choose from. Construction, automotive, culinary, engineering, business, IT, dance and drama. I highly recommend this school for anyone looking to get a head start on their careers!
    This school will test your metal. (Pun intended) You need to want to succeed to make it here. I mean really WANT to succeed. It will be cold in winter and hot in the summer. It will be EXACRLY like a job. Uniforms, id's and a time clock. This is college WILL prepare you to be in the industry. Do not become frustrated . Keep in mind YOUR A STUDENT if you think you know a little about your feild don't forget these guys live it everyday. Make sure you ask questions! If you don't understand something YOU must find the answer by ASKING QUESTIONS! Over all this school is pretty great. Just don't mess around and keep your head down. All hammers find the nail that sticks his head up the farthest. Good luck.
