Those students interested in an accelerated program and attending Clemson are encouraged to apply for the Expressway to Tiger Town. 

Expressway to Tiger Town

Expressway to Tiger Town provides a seamless, accelerated pathway from high school to a Clemson University education degree for students in the Greenville County School District. The partnership between the Clemson University College of Education, Greenville County Schools and Greenville Technical College aims to identify, inspire, support and prepare students for a career in education.

As a participant in Expressway to Tiger Town, you will take dual credit courses in high school. You will then study for one year at Greenville Technical College and the remainder of the program at Clemson, allowing you to receive a bachelor’s degree in just three years. You can apply to stay an additional year at Clemson and earn a master’s degree through its teacher residency program. Upon graduation, you will be invited to apply for a teaching position with Greenville County.
