Gwinnett Tech is proud to serve the servicemen and servicewomen of the United States military as a Servicemembers Opportunity College (SOC). The consortium consists of more than 1750 colleges and universities in the U.S. that are dedicated to providing educational opportunities for servicemembers and their families.

The SOC coordinates associate and bachelor's degree programs offered by colleges and universities in a variety of curriculum areas for the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. Within each curriculum or degree, member colleges, including Gwinnett Tech, agree to accept each othe's credits in transfer as well as provide leniency in residency requirements, and award academic credit for military training and experience and extra institutional learning when applicable.

Gwinnett Technical College will limit academic residency to no more than twenty-five percent of the degree requirements for all degrees for active-duty service members. Academic residency can be completed at any time while active-duty servicemembers are enrolled. Reservist and National Guardsmen on active-duty are covered in the same manner.
