“The College has reviewed the Fire Science Technology Program which includes the degree, the diploma and the technical certificates of credit listed below due to a decreasing number of graduates. As a result, the College has made the decision to terminate the degree, diploma, and certificates with a teach-out plan approved to conclude on April 29, 2021. We encourage you to visit GVTC at https://gvtcapp.tcsg.edu/GVTC/General/Courses.aspx to see available courses at other colleges within the Technical College System of Georgia.”

Valid ACCUPLACER, COMPASS, ASSET, SAT, or ACT test scores (see ACCUPLACER Placement Examination).
