Academic Commitment to Excellence (ACE)
We recognize that some highly motivated and ambitious students may require additional academic support to strengthen their ability to meet the demands of college life. For these students, Post University has created an exciting ACE Scholars Program. This program combines a week-long summer program with year-long academic support designed to strengthen academic skills. The ACE program focuses on three academic areas:
Additionally, ACE Scholars have the benefit of support services designed to assist them in the transition to a rewarding campus life at Post University. ACE students are required to live on campus during the academic year.
ACE Scholars are conditionally accepted to Post University based on the successful completion of the week-long summer program. Each student is eligible to enroll in the degree program of his or her choice. ACE Scholars are awarded one credit toward their degree.
The most exciting opportunity for ACE Scholars is the week-long summer program. During this week, you will live on campus, attend classes, and begin to make the transition to the demands of college life with other ACE Scholars. Resident Assistants and Peer Mentors serve to provide academic support, peer counseling and get you involved in a variety of college activities.
The ACE summer program curriculum is designed for intensive skill development essential for success in your freshman year and beyond. ACE Scholars will develop the ability to think critically and manage their time, as well as enjoy all of the other aspects of college life.
After the summer program, ACE Scholars continue to receive year-round academic assistance, including academic tutoring, weekly advisory meetings with the program coordinator, regular visits to the Writing Center, and mentoring through the ACE program.
We hope by participating in this summer and year-long program, ACE students can start to build a strong academic foundation for a successful college career.
