The best way to know if Western Dakota Technical College (WDTC) is for you is to visit campus. Register today (wdt.edu/visit) to attend College Visit Night, from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m., Tuesday, July 11.
At College Visit Night, you will find out how attending WDTC can benefit you – whether you are in high school or are a recent high school graduate, are looking to change careers, or want to upgrade career skills. The event will provide an engaging opportunity to learn about WDTC's nearly 40 career programs; visit with Admissions, Financial Aid, and Scholarship/Foundation representatives; and tour campus.
Attendees can register in a drawing for an opportunity to win one of two $100 Campus Store Admissions Scholarships. The scholarship will be applied to a student account upon enrollment at WDTC for 2023-2024 and is subject to all scholarship and financial aid policies.
At WDTC, you can earn a degree in two years or less, have the opportunity to make more money upon graduation than with a high school diploma or GED alone, and put yourself in the position to land a Hot Career* as defined by the South Dakota Department of Labor. (*Careers with many openings and high pay in the state.) Scholarships and Financial Aid are available at WDTC, and our friendly employees can help you apply for both.
