Savannah Tech Welcomes Future Students at Fall Open House
Guests explored program areas, met faculty and started applications on the spot.
(SAVANNAH, Ga.) Savannah Technical College opened its doors Saturday morning to prospective students and their families for its Fall Open House at Eckburg Auditorium on the Savannah Campus.
Guests moved through an expo-style showcase of more than 20 academic program areas, talking one-on-one with faculty in healthcare, including nursing, dental hygiene, surgical technology and paramedicine; skilled trades such as HVAC, precision machining and welding, and construction management; and aviation, culinary arts, cosmetology and barbering, cybersecurity, business, criminal justice, early childhood education and film.
Admissions and Financial Aid staff worked with guests in two application labs, helping them complete their Savannah Tech application and the FAFSA before they left. Tables for Adult Education, Dual Enrollment, Military and Veteran services, Economic Development and student organizations rounded out the morning.
“Saturday was about showing our community what is possible here, and then helping people take the first step that same morning,” said Ryan W. Foley, Ed.D., President of Savannah Technical College. “Our faculty and staff turned a visit into a plan for a lot of families today, and that is exactly what continues to drive our mission forward.”
Registration for Spring semester is open now, and classes begin Monday, January 11, 2027. The application fee is waived for applications submitted during the month of November.
