Limited Entry Programs
Some of our programs have limited enrollment and require additional criteria for admission.
Co-Admission Programs
GTCC has partnered with two local four-year colleges to offer co-admission programs, meaning that you are enrolled in both GTCC and the partner college at the same time. This allows you to complete your two-year Associate’s degree at GTCC and seamlessly transition to the four-year partner college to complete your Bachelor’s degree. The partner colleges and degree programs are:
- North Carolina A&T University (NC A&T) – Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering
- The University of North Carolina at Greensboro (UNCG) – Biology, Psychology, Business Administration, Drama
C-STEP (Carolina Student Transfer Excellence Program)
GTCC partners with the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill for C-STEP, the Carolina Student Transfer Excellence Program! With C-STEP, students complete an Associate’s degree with GTCC before transferring to UNC for two more years of study to earn their Bachelor’s degree. Open to high school seniors and current GTCC students.

You will need to complete either an appeal or reconsideration by logging back into your RDS account. Once you have completed your appeal/reconsideration, you will receive an email regarding the decision within a few days. It is your responsibility to alert the school of any changes, if you do not tell us, we will not know to update your status and you will continue to receive bills as an out-of-state student.
