Payment of fees

Upon course registration, the student will receive a bill stating responsibility for tuition, fees and other institutional costs incurred. Students are required to pay all tuition and fees at the time of registration. The final deadline to pay is posted each semester allowing students sufficient time to pay fees as Atlanta Technical College does not offer any payment plans. For the students’ convenience, ATC accepts cash, personal checks, money orders, and/or credit/debit cards with the MasterCard/Visa logo.

Financial aid and/or third party payments must be approved in time to meet payment deadlines, and recipients must ensure that their aid is sufficient to cover all fees for the term. They also must have a current authorization on file, allowing their financial aid to be used for payment of fees at ATC.

Mandatory fees include a $63 Registration fee, $30 Student Activity fee, $6 Insurance fee, and $55 special instructional fee, $50 facilities, $25 Campus safety fee, $8 student assistance program fee, and technology fee of $105 for each term of enrollment. Other fees include $15 or $40 malpractice fee, $45 late registration fee, $40 graduation application fee, $25 parking decal, $20- $90 fee per course, $25 non-refundable application fee, $15 retest fee, $30 returned check fee, $5 replacement student ID fee, $7.50 official academic transcript fee, $25 diploma replacement fee, and $185 Fuel Surcharge fee for Commercial Truck Driving (CDL) program only.

Tuition and fees do not include textbooks, supplies, or tools that may be required for your program of study.

Fee maximums are set by the Technical College Systems of Georgia, and are subject to change at the beginning of any term.

Registration is on a first come, first serve basis at ATC. Schedules are not confirmed until all fees are paid for the semester of enrollment.

A student who fails to meet the deadline of paying all fees for that current semester (establishing a zero balance) with Atlanta Technical College, are subject to being Financially Purged from all registered classes.

Explanation of Fees

Tuition Fee

All students are required to pay a tuition fee based on their residency status, which is calculated according to the number of credit hours of enrollment. For all programs except Commercial Truck Driving (CTD), Georgia residents pay $100 per credit hour. Tuition for the CTD program is $132 per credit hour for GA residents. Students who are legal residents of the state of Georgia under the regulations of the State Board of the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG) shall pay tuition and fees at the state resident rate. A legal resident has resided in the state of Georgia at least 12 months prior to their application date.

Out-of-State Tuition

Out-of-state tuition fees are calculated at twice the Georgia resident’s tuition rate.

International Student Tuition

International students' tuition fees are calculated at four times the residents’ tuition fees.

Tuition fees for credit classes may be waived; however, tuition cannot be waived if the senior citizen enrollment is required for the minimum enrollment of the course.

Employee Tuition Fees

Full-time employees of Atlanta Technical College who wish to enroll in classes pay application and other mandatory fees. Employees who wish to enroll in credit classes are required to apply for financial aid assistance. If financial aid eligibility does not exist, tuition fees may be waived at the prior approval of the president. Employees with tuition fees waived will be enrolled on a space-available basis during the drop/add period. Tuition cannot be waived if the employee enrollment is required for the minimum enrollment of the course.

Transcript Fee

Students who have cleared all obligations to Atlanta Technical College are entitled to receive a transcript of their permanent records from the office of the Office of Enrollment Services. A processing fee of $7.50 is required for each transcript requested.

Transcripts can be requested: Online by clicking here

Official transcripts are processed by a third party vendor Credentials Solutions. Official transcripts will not be given to student but will be mailed as requested. Providing accurate attendance and name change information will enable staff to complete the request in a timely manner.

Other Mandatory Expenses

Program costs are incurred by students enrolled and vary by program. An example of this is the Malpractice Fee that is assessed during the clinical portion of several programs.
