Early College Opportunities
Credit Type Definitions
About Advanced Standing
Take high school classes, taught by high school teachers, that are determined to be a “close match” to NWTC coursework.
If you earn a final grade of “B” or better and are accepted to an NWTC or other Wisconsin technical college program, you will receive advanced standing status and earn the opportunity to skip an introductory level course. Credits are transferrable to all schools within the Wisconsin Technical College System. (Credits are rarely recognized outside of WTCS.)
About Transcribed Credit
Learn NWTC curriculum from high school teachers who have been trained by NWTC faculty.
About Career Pathways
Earn from 3 to 26 college credits toward specific careers — like nursing assistant and automotive — before you even graduate from high school!
