To enroll in pre-college courses, you must be a high school junior or senior. All students will be subject to the college rules and regulations. Provisional credit will be granted for work completed satisfactorily. Credit that is applicable toward a degree will be granted after high school graduation.
What are my choices for pre-college courses?
- The Early Admission Program is an opportunity for high school students to get a jumpstart on college course work while still in high school. Download a printable early admission application form.
- The Dual Enrollment Program allows high school students to earn both college and high school credit at the same time. Students must secure course recommendations from their high school counselor.

Enrollment Checklist for Dual Enrollment Students
1. Submit a Dual Enrollment Form
- Obtain the necessary registration forms from your guidance counselor or:
- Visit the Admissions Office
- Visit any County Center
Financial Aid
- Current high school students are not eligible to receive financial assistance.
- Students will, however, receive lottery tuition assistance if they take two (2) classes or six (6) credit hours within the same semester. Tuition may still be required. Bills will be sent out several weeks after classes begin.
2. Complete the Placement Test
If you have already earned appropriate scores on the SAT (480 Verbal and 480 Math) or the ACT (20), then you will not have to take Piedmont Tech's placement test. Otherwise, please select one of the following testing methods:
- See your counselor to make plans to test at your high school
- Contact our Admissions Office at (864) 941-8369 to make plans to take the test at Piedmont Tech's Lex Walters Campus, Greenwood
- Contact a nearby County Center to take the test
3. Register for Classes
- Register for classes at your high school with your guidance counselor.
- For summer classes, online courses, or PTC classes, register through Piedmont Tech's Dual Enrollment Office.
4. Obtain Your PTC Pathway Account Information
PTC Pathway allows you to go online to access your course schedule, grades, academic records, tuition blance, financial statements, and certain student services. At the time of enrollment, the college will assign you a random PTC ID (P#) that is used to log into your PTC Pathway account. Your date of birth (MMDDYY) will be your temporary password.

If textbooks are necessary, check with your high school guidance counselor for purchase information. Also, check out the online bookstore.
