NEW STUDENT ADVISING

Welcome to Anne Arundel Community College! To recap now that your application has been received, reviewed and recorded:
- You have been assigned an AACC student ID number. That number is needed to transact college business so please keep a record of your AACC student ID number until you obtain your AACC photo student ID card at the Arnold campus, Arundel Mills, or Glen Burnie Town Center locations.
- For more information visit www.aacc.edu/cardpolicies.
- AACC has an online system called MyAACC that is used to provide updates and information to applicants. Once you become a registered student you will also use your MyAACC account to check your AACC e-mail; plan your schedule; register for classes online; pay your bill; attend online classes; get your grades, and access many other services and resources. View the MyAACC tutorial PDF for log-in instructions and more information.
