If you are interested in joining ACES, you should submit your preference form. Students should tell the Honors College which living-learning programs interest them most. For best consideration, complete and submit your Honors College Preference Form in your Coalition account by February 15, 2019. 

In order to join ACES, you must confirm your enrollment. When you confirm your enrollment to the University of Maryland by May 1, 2018, you will be automatically confirmed for enrollment in ACES. 

All ACES students are required to live in Prince Frederick Hall for their freshman and sophomore year. In order to confirm your place in Prince Frederick, you must apply for housing by May 1, 2019. Missing the May 1 deadline may impact your ability to secure on-campus housing.

Students should register for orientation with the Orientation Office. Students must attend a two-day orientation program in the summer to build their fall schedules. The Honors College invites newly admitted students to attend Honors Orientation, but students also have the option to attend a regular orientation. Honors Orientation is scheduled for June 19-20, June 27-28, and July 17-18.
