Earn a Degree and Graduate Early
Complete a career pathways program at your high school or technical center and you could earn EDGE credit through Pierpont Community & Technical College. In fact, all West Virginia Career & Technical Centers provide classes that could allow you to earn free college credits.
Will EDGE help me?
If you earn EDGE credits and continue on the same pathway, then the classes you took in high school will count toward both high school and college! Many students can graduate college early and save money because of the courses they took in high school.
