About

Since 1999, Washtenaw Technical Middle College (WTMC) has served high school students from across southeastern Michigan, providing educational opportunities far beyond the traditional high school. Learn more about our history.

Mission

We transform high school students into successful college students by providing meaningful educational choices, individualized advising, and skill-based instruction. Our graduates complete both a high school diploma and a college certificate or degree.

Academic advantages

WTMC emphasizes skill development, not credit completion. WTMC requires each graduate to:

  • transition from high-school level course work to full time college-level course work
  • complete a set of core 100-level academic courses with a grade of C or better
  • complete either a technical certificate or associate degree at the college

After finishing the college core academic requirements, students complete a technical certificate or associate degree from 十大彩票网赌平台. Based on their Educational Development Plan (EDP), WTMC students may choose from 60 十大彩票网赌平台 programs and electives.

All WTMC students work closely with an advisor who supports their success. BASE advisors are the first point of contact for students and families.

In addition to academic classes, we teach soft skills—life management habits—that all students need in college.  Our students practice scheduling their time, organizing their lives in and out of school, and communicating effectively with peers and professors.
