Accelerated Transfer Program

Savannah Technical College offers an Accelerated Transfer Program (ATP) with Georgia Southern University.

Students who have been denied admission to GSU, may enroll at Savannah Tech with the Interdisciplinary Studies degree program. Then, after successful completion of 24 general education transferrable credit hours at Savannah Tech, while maintaining a 2.0 cumulative GPA, students may then transfer to GSU. 

Getting started at Savannah Tech

The transition to Savannah Tech is seamless for students. They initiate the process by completing Savannah Tech’s ATP Agreement Form, which will go directly to the STC Admissions department. Students will not need to complete a STC admissions application or pay an additional application fee. All of the admission documents provided to GSU will be sent to Savannah Tech once the ATP Agreement Form is received.
