Small Class Sizes

Small Class Sizes

College classes can be intimidating for first-time students, especially classes with dozens if not hundreds of students. In that kind of setting it’s easy to feel like just one more face in the crowd.
Individualized Attention
But that’s not the case at Aiken Technical College. Along with personal advising each term, ATC offers comfortable class sizes with a student/faculty ratio of 18:1. That means individualized attention from highly qualified faculty that maximizes your learning opportunities from the start.
Make no mistake, high school and college are not the same. College is more demanding. There are more opportunities, but also more work requirements. That can be overwhelming if your instructor has classroom overload and can’t give you the one-on-one attention you deserve.
Small class sizes also permit faculty to offer reassurance and guidance if you are struggling with course material or just beginning to learn your way around a college classroom. ATC treats you as an individual — and that can make all the difference as you pursue your certificate, diploma or degree!
