A college education doesn't have to cost a fortune.

We know that the cost of an education is a crucial part of the decision making process when you're thinking about attending college. With low tuition cost, plenty of financial aid options and a payment plan designed to make paying for college easy, Piedmont Technical College makes it easy to invest in your future. Most PTC students receive some form of financial aid — grants, scholarships, loans, or work study — to help cover tuition, fees, books, and other expenses.

We partner with employers around the region to ensure our training prepares you for real jobs that are available—and with our job-ready guarantee, we're making sure that you'll get the skills you need.

Students are encouraged to apply for financial aid as early as possible and to submit a new FAFSA for each academic year they attend. While our priority deadline is March 1, applications are accepted throughout the year.

Complete your FAFSA for 2026-2027 at https://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa. Our school code is 003992.
