For working adult learners, going back to school and finishing your education can seem like an unattainable goal. But it doesn’t have to be. The reason it seems so difficult is that most colleges simply aren’t designed to serve the unique needs of adult learners who may have jobs, families and/or other responsibilities to tend to. When you attend Peirce, however, you’ll find that it’s a school designed specifically to serve working adults and help them get ahead in their careers.
Peirce has been educating adult learners since its founding in 1865, so we’ve learned a thing or two about how to make higher education work for working adults. And we’ve never stopped innovating. Peirce is the rare local school with accelerated, flexible courses and a supportive staff and faculty to help you navigate them.
Courses start every two months, so you can start almost any time of year and quickly earn credits without overburdening yourself with too many simultaneous courses.
Peirce is also more affordable than you might think pursuing higher education to be. That’s because Wawa employees and their spouses and dependents can enjoy a tuition discount at Peirce thanks to our corporate partnership program.
To receive your Peirce corporate discount, simply complete a Peirce application and select your employer when asked how you heard about Peirce. A Peirce admissions representative will then be in touch to guide you through the next steps. To see a full list of benefits Peirce offers through our corporate partnership with Wawa, click here. We’ll also waive your $50 undergraduate application fee.
