    Tips for prospective students

    Get involved SGA aka Student Government Association is the voice of the student on campus. I have been in SGA for two semesters Fall of 2009-2010 and this Spring of 2010-2011. SGA offers Books and Tuition Scholarships for those students who are interested in taking a stand and being on the Executive board, where as I am actually the Executive Treasuer, its a great experience for anyone that really like communicating with students.

    Great for these types of students

    The softball program has only been improving the last couple of years. In spring 2011, the team won over forty games and took third in the regional tournament. We can only expect an even better turn out in spring 2012 and are excited to get the season started. GCCC offers all sorts of programs in which some of the strongest include: Agriculture, Firefighting, Nursing, and Cosmetology.
    Tips for prospective students

    Get involved as much as you can. It makes your experience more enjoyable AND looks good on resumes! GCCC offers many clubs such as SGA, athletics, Choir, Drama, and much more. Getting involved is the best way to create some of most extraordinary relationships that will last a life time.
    Bang for the buck

    The campus offers different types of living areas such as dorms, units, and apartments. The units were just recently refurbished in Summer 2011 and the apartments will be remodeled in Summer 2012. GCCC offers a 15 or 19 meal plan that is available to all students for a set price. The campus also offers several activities year round where students can relax, have fun, and even win prizes! This activities include but aren't limited to: free 15min massages, BINGO night, Casino night, and free Bowling night. It's a fun college atmosphere here at GCCC.

    GCCC is like my second home. It's a place where students and faculty welcome one another and support each other in any way possible. It's a small environment and a place where some of the best friendships and relationships are built.
    Am learning a lot

    GCCC offers lots of programs. I am studying Pre-Veterinary Medicine and couldn't be any happier with my experience here. I have learned a lot in my specified degree courses and am on the right track to earning my Associates Degree in May 2012. The professors are very helpful and friendly.
