UNIVERSITY CENTER

Seven four-year colleges and universities cooperate with Greenville Technical College to meet the growing need for upper-division and graduate-level educational opportunities for students in the Greenville metropolitan area.  Clemson University, Furman University, Lander University, the Medical University of South Carolina, South Carolina State University, the University of South Carolina and the University of South Carolina Upstate are members of the University Center.  Greenville Technical College is also a member of the University Center consortium and provides lower-division university transfer courses to the center.

The center offers more than 500 courses during evenings and weekends year-round in over 58 undergraduate and graduate degree programs.  Degrees are granted by the participating colleges and universities.  Tuition is set by each member institution, and all courses are taught by full-time faculty members from the sponsoring colleges and universities.  Most Furman courses are taught on its campus.

The center is a “mini-campus” located on South Pleasantburg Drive at McAlister Square and is specially designed for adult students whose job responsibilities and family obligations prevent them from traveling to distant campuses to pursue degrees.
