Early College Experience (ECE) Program
The Early College Experience Program is an academic partnership between Westchester Community College and area high schools, which enables high school students to enroll in college level classes and earn college credit during their final year(s) of high school.
ECE courses are taught by high school teachers who have been vetted and approved by the college’s academic departments and follow the learning objectives as described in the Westchester Community College departmental course outlines. Students must be on track to complete New York State high school graduation requirements and meet all necessary prerequisites for the college course as defined in the college’s course catalog. All classes take place in the high school during the students’ regular school day.
Students who complete all required coursework receive a grade which is recorded on an official Westchester Community College transcript, which then can be forwarded to the student’s college for transfer credit evaluation.
