Transient Student Admission
Students enrolled at other colleges and universities may wish to take one or more courses at Atlanta Technical College and transfer the credit back to their home institutions. These students may enroll in the College as transient students. Transient admission is for one semester only; transient students must submit transient letters from their home colleges each semester they plan to enroll in courses at Atlanta Technical College. Students who have been academically dismissed from their home institutions are ineligible for transient student status at Atlanta Technical College. The Enrollment Services Office staff will award transient status to applicants who submit the following items:
-
Letters of transient approval from their home institutions that indicate their academic standing and the courses approved for enrollment. If transient approval letters do not list academic standing and approved courses, applicants must also provide official transcripts from their home institutions to document that they have met the course prerequisites established by the faculty of Atlanta Technical College. Transient students are not eligible to register for courses for which they have not met the prerequisite requirements. They must also satisfy co-requisite requirements established by the College.
-
Completed Atlanta Technical College application for admission and a nonrefundable $25 application fee.
-
Financial aid transient letters from their home colleges to the Financial Aid Office at Atlanta Technical College (if applicable).
-
Completed transient course request forms to the Enrollment Services Office (if needed) to receive clearance for registration.
Transient students who plan to take online classes must apply through GVTC.org and complete the college's new student orientation online prior to registering for classes.
Transient students must pay tuition and fees either online or to the cashier by the fee payment deadlines listed in the college calendar. HOPE transient letters must be submitted to the Atlanta Technical College Financial Aid Office prior to the day transient students register for classes.
After completing courses, transient students must order an official transcript to be sent to their home institution. Transcript request can be make online here.
Atlanta Technical College does not guarantee enrollment to transient students. Transient students may enroll in classes if space is available.
