In the wake of ITT Technical Institute’s
(ITT Tech) nationwide closures, which affects hundreds of students throughout
the Miami Valley, Edison State Community College is now broadening its approach
to support ITT Tech students in addition to recently displaced Miami-Jacobs
Career College students.
Edison State offers the following career
programs that parallel the offerings found at ITT Tech in Dayton: Electrical
Engineering Technology, Information Technology, and Nursing. The parallel
programs indicate that students impacted by the recent closures may be able to pick
up where they left off, assuming they are in good academic standing.
In addition, students who were enrolled
in ITT Tech Dayton’s Software Development, Industrial Engineering Technology,
Business Management, and Criminal Justice programs (which had been discontinued
prior to the closure) could also benefit from parallel programs at Edison
State.
To transfer to Edison State, former ITT Tech students should send an official copy of their ITT Tech transcript to Edison State for evaluation, and complete Edison State’s free,
online
application. ITT Tech students may request their transcripts via the ITT Tech Student Portal, which requires a student email address and network password to login.
Those who began pursuing a degree at ITT
Tech’s Dayton branch but are now unable to complete their degree are asked to
contact Julie Hasford, an Edison State Enrollment Manager with significant
experience working with students in the for-profit space, by calling
937-778-7814 or emailing jhasford@edisonohio.edu.
Edison State Community College’s approach ensures compliance with its accrediting body, the Higher Learning Commission.
