Upcoming Events
Learn about the college and how to become a Trident Tech student at a Virtual Open House.
The college is reopening its campuses June 10. However, to ensure the safety of TTC employees and visitors to campus, a minimal number of employees will be working on campus; most will continue to work from home. On-campus wait times may be longer than normal due to staffing limitations. We encourage you to access services online or on the phone whenever possible. If you choose to visit a campus, please be aware that you must wear a mask to receive in-person service.
Make your career day, college night and other events even better with our professional and informative presentations. The experts at Trident Technical College are ready to talk to you about financial aid, applying to college, career opportunities, saving money on tuition with the S.C. Education Lottery and LIFE Scholarship, counseling and disability services and more.
