Cheap way to take core classes to transfer to UNG
Overall 4.6
I really loved my semester at Lanier teachers were friendly and helpful.
Overall 4.4
The technical programs are excellent, staffed by instructors who want you to succeed, and dedicated to developing real world skills. The grounds and facilities are beautiful and clean. No on campus food, and no nearby restaurants, but that's not a big deal to me. I enjoyed my time here better than at university.

Suggestions for college: Have more suggestions boxes on campus/survey cards, offer more online courses & weekend courses for working students, post more instructional videos on YouTube, have a free health fair on campus every year, ask for more anonymous feedback from students, post professors course syllabus online for students.

I'm going through my first and only semester at Lanier Tech. Lanier is not built for people to attend more than 1 semester mainly because of their poor class schedule. Everything looks like it came straight from the 80's, but not in a good way. The Student Center is the most laughable part of all. It's hard to find good teachers too. Don't go!
Overall 1.8
Teachers are god awful. There are a few gems, but they are few and far between. Classes are pretty easy, but the professors make it miserable. I was here for Dual Enrollment and spent the entire time just waiting to get out. I can't imagine paying for it.

If you want a good education and not just a piece of paper and can afford to go elsewhere, run for your life!

Needs a cafeteria!!!! All we have is Expired vending machines!! Our so called "Student Center" is more of a "Sleeping Center" no one is interactive and they all just sit there. We need the atmosphere to be more FUN and Entertaining!! I hate this school!! Wish it was more fun and Hip!
