Early Admissions
The College has established an Early Admission Program in accordance with State Education Department guidelines in order to provide academically capable high school seniors an opportunity to take college-level courses. These guidelines require an average of 85% or higher in a Regents course of study and a recommendation from the high school guidance counselor or principal. Early Admission Application forms can be obtained from a high school guidance counselor or from the Admissions Office at ACC. Early Admission students are ineligible for both federal and state aid.
