Registration has opened for Washtenaw Community College’s 2026 winter semester.

WCC’s winter semester begins January 12. Prospective students can apply online or enroll in person.

WCC Executive Vice President for Instruction Brandon Tucker says classes are offered online and on weekends to accommodate adult learners and students with busy schedules.

“But for the majority of our online programs, if a student is working a job in the morning, they can do it at night or vice versa. But really, we try to make sure that we have a cadre of offerings that are around their schedule in the format that they want.”

This year, WCC launched associate degrees and certificates in Engineering and Construction Technology, as well as a Semiconductor & Battery Manufacturing Advanced Certificate.

WCC Executive Vice President for Instruction Brandon Tucker says many of their programs now incorporate AI.

“I wanna say that AI is not going to take away jobs, but it is going to enhance jobs. So, you wanna ensure that you are aware of the capabilities of AI and that you embrace it and that you don't run away from it 'cause it's not going anywhere. If anything, it's gonna continue to evolve.”

Tucker says multiple types of scholarships and financial aid assistance are available.
