Allison - 11/27/2024

I think Tri-County Technical College is a very well-rounded community college. The professors are easygoing and understanding. There is a homie feeling. The teachers care about the students and their well-being. The class sizes are not huge and there is a good student-to-teacher ratio. Most teachers have very flexible office hours and are available when anyone needs assistance. This college usually has a lot of bridge to Clemson students and many dual enrollment students. There is a variety of students all on different journeys. The office workers at this campus are very helpful and are readily available for any questions. Overall, this campus is a good community college.

Mary - 03/16/2020

Tri-County Technical College is an overall great school. There are some events but not a lot of involvement. This is is technical school so that is to be expected. The food is decent. There is campus police and it is safe. Parking is sometimes difficult. I would say the main issues you would have classes wise is the math, chemistry and vet tech courses. Overall, it’s a good school.

Savannah - 08/15/2019

I would not recommend going to this school. In high school, I was pushed to go to this school because they were tied with my school, but now I wish I had stuck with going to Greenville Tech like I had wanted to at first. I feel like I have learned very little and many of the teachers do not care if you succeed.

Latessa - 08/11/2019

It's a great starter school. The graduation rate is high and they set up your classes so you will succeed quickly and effectively.
