What is Durham Tech?

Durham Tech is a community college located in Durham, North Carolina. Orange High works with them to allow advanced juniors and seniors to take classes there to work towards an associate’s degree in a certain topic.

“The Durham Tech mission ensures that all students develop the knowledge, skills, and networks needed to be successful in college, work, and life.” (Durham Tech website)

How do I enroll for classes?

Trying to get started on new things is very difficult. The first thing you need to do is reach out to your counselor to set up a meeting. Your counselor should be able to answer all your questions and get you up and running. They should also be able to connect you with a Durham Tech advisor who can help you from there.

Figuring it all out is very stressful; however, it benefits you in ways you don’t realize.

Why is Durham Tech a good opportunity?

Durham Tech is a very good opportunity because it will help you get started on a degree and teach you how to navigate the college world. Not to mention, you don’t have to pay tuition to go! If you need more advanced and fast-paced classes Durham Tech is definitely something you should consider.  Depending on how many classes you take, or how many credits you get you could graduate from high school with an associate’s degree.
