For returning or newly accepted students, the links below provide instructions and access to the online enrollment process.  You’ll use this process to enroll in courses or change courses if needed.  

Select the option that applies to you.  

• For students from partnering Greenville County high schools, charter high schools, or career centers (see Early College School Partners in the FAQ for complete list)
  Use these detailed instructions for enrolling through Student Planning (pdf)

• For home-school students or students from other schools (private schools, online academies, etc.)
  Use this enrollment form (pdf) to identify the specific courses you would like to take. This form can also be used to add, drop or withdraw from courses.

PLEASE NOTE: All online learning courses require completion of COL 111 (E-Learning Success) 

Effective fall 2018, students who are either new or returning to GTC after a three-semester break AND who plan to take any online course(s) must complete a 1-credit, online COL 111 course designed to foster success in an online learning environment. While COL 111 could be helpful to any student, it is not currently required for continuing students or students who plan to take only face-to-face or blended courses.

• Before registering for any fully online course, affected students must have either completed COL 111 successfully (prerequisite) or be registered for COL 111 (co-requisite) in the same term.
• Faculty members have designed COL 111 to introduce students to basic computer skills and functions necessary to navigate the Blackboard learning management system. COL 111 also includes assignments for students to self-assess whether they are prepared for online learning.
• Unlike other courses, COL 111 tuition is set at $25 and there is no additional textbook cost.

Please be aware that the final amounts for student accounts (billing/fees) may take up to 4 weeks to be completed. Flex start courses may take longer which means your total bill may not be ready until 8 weeks after the start of the semester.
