Advanced College Experience (ACE) 2010
Program Dates: July 12 - August 10, 2010
9th - 12th Grade Students: Sign Up for the ACE Program!
Get a head start on college with Community College of Philadelphia’s summer ACE program. ACE, the Advanced College Experience, will provide you with an opportunity you will never
forget! ACE ‘10 provides college-level courses for highly motivated high school students going into 9th, 10th, 11th or 12th grades. We accept public, private, charter, archdiocesan and home-schooled students. Meeting students from diverse backgrounds and getting a jump on college with the possibility of earning college credits, exploring career interests or using your creative talents are some of the many reasons we think you should talk to your teachers, friends and family about registering for ACE ‘10.
The ACE program offers a cross-section of the regular college courses we have at
Community College of Philadelphia. The classes are intensive and include a full semester of course material from July 6 - August 4. Courses meet Monday through Thursday, three and one-half hours per day. There are no classes on Fridays. (See course descriptions for exact times.) It’s a tough schedule and requires hard work, dedication to the task and, most of all, a desire to learn new and exciting academic skills.
