Peirce College understands what adult learners looking to complete their education need. You need something immediate, something flexible – but something with the best education and support you can get. You need college classes that fit into your busy lifestyle. At Peirce, that’s exactly what we give you.

Peirce's accelerated college courses run throughout the entire year through our six-session school calendar, which allows you to get through more classes in less time than you would at schools with traditional two or three-semester schedules. But what if you want to earn credits even quicker than that? By enrolling in select intensive college courses, you can. These classes will earn you the same amount of credits as a normal 8-week course would but in less than half the time.

Our intensive college courses let you take an additional course per session or add a winter session course and earn your degree faster while still maintaining your busy work and family life. Eligible Peirce students can take select Intensive courses, but they must be registered at least one week in advance of the session start.

Peirce also welcomes guest students from other colleges and universities into our intensive winter and weekend college classes. Guest students can complete classes rapidly and apply the credits toward their degree. Guest students should consult with their academic advisor at their primary college to review transfer credit policies.
