The other reviews on here hit it on the head.
You ARE JUST A NUMBER at this school. Some instructors can be absolutely awesome, some can be completely horrible.

In most typically required courses they are horrible, unhelpful and do NOTHING in their online courses. You can tell the difference between the online instructors that take the time to actually do something within their classes on Blackboard and student resources. Most instructors, leave blackboard blank, they put nothing on the calendar, and they copy and paste basic information for the course in student resources section which ends up being completely unhelpful.

If you go to GvlTec, expect to be treated as a number.
Avoid the online classes because the teachers do not communicate with you properly and you will spend most of the semester in a state of panic.

If you have an issue or a complaint I wish you the best of luck. I took a physics class in which the pass rate was only 20% every semester. Despite how many complaints were filed against this teacher, nothing has been done.

I've heard several cases in other classes as well in which classmates (sometimes myself included) were displeased with some aspect of a course and, upon getting no response from the instructor, sought higher management only to be ignored or pushed aside.

If you are an art major, prepare to pull your hair out. The teachers here tend to grade your work based on whether or not they like a piece with no regard to how well you met the requirements. The feedback you get back will be minimal and unhelpful.Nothing ever gets done. So glad I never have to go back.

Not so bright
I have been going to Tech on and off over the years. I find the classes are challenging but do-able. All of the teachers I've had have been very passionate about their field. I believe that is what makes it challenging. Yes the wait for finical aid is forever long but the advisors are very understanding and helpful. I've changed majors a lot so I have experienced different programs and I have learned a lot for each class I've taken. I've enjoyed the majority of my teachers as well. The tuition is low and there are many different degrees to choose from. Overall a good experience and I would recommend to anyone.
