Our team is excited to help you begin your journey toward academic success. From day one with New Student Orientation until the end of the year, we are here for you!
We host fun, social events and skill-based workshops aimed at helping you get adjusted to college. Dedicated to AACC's mission of providing high quality, accessible and innovative solutions for education and services, our team looks forward to setting you up for a strong first year.
We offer online orientation to accommodate busy schedules, transportation difficulties or any other challenges that may limit you from coming to campus. Our detailed online orientation can be accessed at any time, from any mobile device and no registration is required.
In addition to online orientation, we offer in-person orientation sessions for those who want to have a more structured introduction to our college campus and community.
Our in-person orientation will introduce students and their families to college and student leaders, key resources and policies, and help familiarize them with the AACC campus. Attendees will also receive a coupon from the AACC Bookstore on AACC apparel. We suggest students plan to complete the detailed online orientation in addition to attending an in-person session.
This summer we are offering two different orientation experiences - one for all new students and one for those students participating in our dual enrollment program.
The dual enrollment orientation will be tailored specifically to those high school students who plan to take college-level classes through AACC. We encourage parents to join their students for this experience.

Are you anxious to get started? There are some things you can do before classes begin.
If you haven’t already, get familiar with the student portal, MyAACC. You'll use this portal to register for classes, pay your bill, get your grades, plan your schedule, check your email, access online courses, find out what’s happening on campus, join student organizations and more. Once you’re admitted to the college, you'll get your username via email.
You can print your latest schedule from MyAACC or access it on your mobile device using the AACC app. Even if you think you already know where you’re supposed to be and when, it’s a good idea to double check.
Not sure what textbooks you need for your classes? Visit the AACC Bookstore online.
We're here to help!
