The Maricopa ACE Programs are designed to help at-risk students make smooth transitions at the important junctures between high school and community college, and from community college to the university, ultimately leading students to completion of a baccalaureate degree.
Students take college courses Monday through Thursday during the summers and on Saturdays during the fall and spring semesters.
This program enables high school students to earn up to 24 college credits while still in high school.
