  • Early Middle College

    An early middle college (EMC) is a Michigan Department of Education approved five-year program of study.  The EMC is designed to allow a pupil to earn a high school diploma and one of the following; 60 transferable college credits, an associate degree, a professional certification, the Michigan Early Middle College Association (MEMCA) technical certificate, or the right to participate in a registered apprenticeship.  A professional certification is any certificate or industry recognized credential in which the pupil prepared for by taking course work provided by a Michigan public or private college or university.

    An early middle college high school means a stand-alone public high school, where 100% of the pupils are enrolled as EMC pupils.  An early middle college program is a high school program designed to serve less than 100% of the high school population. An early middle college consortium program is comprised of multiple school districts with one coordinating agency.
