Update on Shoreline’s Early Childhood Education Program

Dear Student, 

Shoreline has begun the process of sunsetting the Early Childhood Education (ECEprogram. As of spring quarter 2021, the ECE program will no longer accept any new students, however ECE courses will be offered in the spring, based on current student needs.  

After spring 2021, students in thECE program will be provided with options for completing their degrees and certificates. The College will make every effort to ensure they are able to complete their studies in the same amount of time, in the same modality (online), and for the same cost as originally planned. 

If you are a student currently enrolled in thECE program as of winter 2021, you will receive a more detailed email by February 15in which you will be invited to work with an advisor to determine the next steps in your educational plan.  

(Note: Parenting Education courses, co-op preschools, and Parent Child Center services are not affected by this change). 

Thank you for your patience as we undertake this process. Please know the College is committed to providing ECE students with every resource available to ensure their educational and career success. If you have questions about this process, please contact Brigid Nulty, Acting Associate Dean of Business, Communication Studies, and Social Sciences (bnulty@shoreline.edu). 

Sincerely, 

Phillip King 
Vice President for Student LearningEquity & Success
