About This School

Chattahoochee Technical College is a public technical college in the U.S. state of Georgia. It is governed by the Technical College System of Georgia and has eight campuses in the north-northwest metro-Atlanta area, and another just outside the region. It is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACS) to award technical certificates of credit, diplomas, and associate degrees. The college was formed in 2009 as the result of the merger of Appalachian Technical College, Chattahoochee Technical College, and North Metro Technical College.
Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable path into a trade or technical career — at just $4,546/year average net price, the cost is genuinely low. However, the median earnings of $31,700 a decade after enrollment are modest, so this school makes the most sense if you're targeting a specific in-demand program (healthcare, IT, skilled trades) rather than treating it as a general stepping stone. With eight campuses spread across the north Atlanta metro area, access and flexibility are real advantages for working students or those with family commitments.
