Fox Valley Technical College
1000 Edgewood College Drive, Madison, WI
Established in 1912, the Fox Valley Technical College has a humble beginning as a city vocational school that serves the cities of Appleton, Kaukauna, Menasha and Oshkosh in Wisconsin. It was only in 1972 when the first FVTC campus was opened in Bluemound Drive in Grand Chute. Currently, there are more than 200 hundred courses offered in FVTC from agriculture, aviation, business, information technology, healthcare, electronics, human services, manufacturing and public safety. Aside from teaching college students, FVTC is also active in providing refresher training courses to local employers in Wisconsin.
While the courses offered in FVTC are enough to draw in a lot of students, it is perhaps the tuition fee of the school that makes it appealing to students. For this Academic Year (2013), Wisconsin residents are required to pay only $138 per credit while out-of-state pay $199 per credit. However, additional costs are still not included such as student insurance, books and application fees.
With its more than a hundred years of service, the Fox Valley Technical College does not falter in providing high quality education as well as training to students and skilled workforce in the local market scene.
Lastly, those who want to transfer to another university to take a four-year course can easily transfer to any of the following schools below as long as the student has met the general transfer requirements:
