Technical Advanced Credit
Tech Prep students may be eligible to receive advanced placement credit at any technical college in Georgia. This advanced placement credit is based on the articulation agreement developed between the Georgia Department of Education and the Technical College System of Georgia. The agreement is designed to aid in a seamless transition from high school to postsecondary education without repetition of coursework already mastered in high school.
Certain courses have been identified and evaluated through a formal process to insure that the same competencies are included in both the high school curriculum and the technical college curriculum. These courses are listed in the Quick Reference Guide. The following criteria must be met in order to receive Technical Advanced Credit.
- Student must receive a grade of "85" or higher on the final transcript to qualify for technical advanced placement credit.
- Student must claim technical advanced credit by enrolling in a technical college within 18 months after graduation.
- Number of advanced placement credits will vary according to the program of study the student is pursuing at the postsecondary level.
If you are interested in claiming your credit, you will want to have your transcript officially evaluated by the admissions department upon application to the technical college.
