Accelerated Collegiate Experience

 

Begin Your Journey in Higher Education

The Accelerated Collegiate Experience (ACE) at FGCU is designed to bring a unique and scholarly experience to qualified high school junior and senior students who are seeking an advanced study option through full-time dual enrollment. A student may earn college credit through coursework taken at FGCU while simultaneously completing the high school diploma.

The ACE program guides students through their scholarly work and assists in creating pathways to academic and professional goals. An ACE student is expected to be engaged at FGCU in high-impact and co-curricular activities such as service, research, leadership and preparing for internships and study abroad opportunities.
