Visiting Students
Have the best of both worlds
Save money by taking classes at OCtech and easily transfer your credits back to your home school.
“Every summer, I’ve taken at least two courses through OCtech. It was the same amount of money for me to take two classes at OCtech as it was for me to take one at Clemson. "
