Joining ATC as a Guest Student
Attending Aiken Technical College as a guest student can be a smart way to make the best use of your time and money.
Guest students are those already accepted or enrolled at another college who want to transfer credits to that school.
As a guest student, you should be advised by your primary college on courses you take with us and how your work at ATC will transfer. It’s also up to students to be sure transcripts are sent to their primary colleges once coursework has been completed. View Current Course Listings
Enrollment Steps
Before coming to campus
- Apply for admission
- Please allow three business days to process your application. (Holidays and/or college closings will extend this timeline.) The process includes identity verification and review of your application for any missing information. You may be requested to provide additional documentation in person at the Enrollment Services Center. Please regularly check the email address you used for the application for follow-up information and details to prevent delay in your acceptance and enrollment at the college.
- Submit your approval form from your home college. If your college has already provided a transient form that they have completed and signed, you can attach it to the application before submitting.
- Please make sure your form includes course section numbers to prevent registration delays.
- A staff member will register you and contact you by email to ask any questions and/or confirm your registration.
When you’re on campus
- Visit the Enrollment Services Center
- Set up your MyATC Portal account
- Obtain a student ID and parking decal
- Pay for tuition or set up a payment plan
