In addition to exploring academic majors, they will have the opportunity to speak with Trojan Student Ambassadors, learn about student support services, student clubs and activities, and tour the campus and Willowbrook Woods, the college’s student housing complex. Vouchers for lunches in the college café will be provided.  

Summer session courses may be previewed online at https://allegany-ss.colleague.elluciancloud.com/Student/Student/Courses. The college offers full term and A and B term courses. A preview for fall courses will be shared in March.

County residents can complete two years of full-time study (tuition and standard fees) to earn an associate degree at ACM for half the cost of one year of study at a regional college or university. The ACM Foundation offers over $1 million in scholarships annually.
