EDGE Learning & Wellness and EDGE Advance are excited to announce the addition of a new learning support option, EDGE Virtual Campus.  There is still a lot of uncertainty about what students can expect from college this fall.  Many young adults may feel even more unprepared and anxious about their ability to succeed academically in college, due to an attenuated final high school semester or spring college term. The default virtual learning/academic experience that was initiated last spring very likely lacked the rigor and demands of future virtual learning experiences that learning institutions have had time to prepare.  In addition, feelings of isolation and disconnection are common. 

To help successfully meet the challenges that are posed, the EDGE team has been busy providing flexible learning options and experiences that lend themselves to providing ongoing support to all of our students, both on site and remotely.  It is clear that whatever direction our country’s academic institutions take, access to ongoing virtual support will be a critical aspect of any successful educational experience. 

With a long-standing commitment to supporting students striving for academic and social success, as well as celebrating the diversity of students that have historically gravitated toward a more metropolitan experience, the EDGE family of support programs is prepared to meet student needs on multiple levels.  These services will include therapeutic life coaching from professionals holding advanced degrees in a counseling-related field, learning support and coaching, executive functioning skills development and support, career engagement, health and wellness services as well as unique community-building experiences and opportunities – typically only available in residential settings.  For more information about EDGE Virtual Campus or any of the EDGE support programs, please contact the  Admissions Director, John Conway at jconway@edgevirtualcampus.com
