About This School

Southern Crescent Technical College is a public institution located in Griffin, Georgia with approximately 4,035 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $4,652 per year. Typical graduates earn $30,200 within 10 years of enrollment.

Southern Crescent Technical College is a public community college with two main campuses in Georgia, one in Griffin and one in Thomaston. The McDonough campus of the Henry County Center has the second-largest student enrollment behind the Griffin campus. It also has centers in Jackson, Monticello and Butler.

This is a strong option if you're looking for an affordable path into a technical career — at just $4,652 per year after aid and a median debt of only $6,334 at graduation, the financial risk is genuinely low. The honest concern is the earning side: graduates typically bring in $30,200 a decade after enrolling, which is modest, so this school makes the most sense if you're targeting a specific trade or certification rather than maximizing long-term income. Worth considering for students who want a practical, low-cost credential without taking on significant debt.
