Support Services
The primary mission of First Year Experience at St. Cloud State, including ACE, is to help facilitate student success through a wide range of academic support services within the University College and beyond.
ACE Program Office
We encourage ACE students to meet with our staff as often as they feel necessary. Some ACE students will set regular (weekly, biweekly) appointments with us, while others may stop in only a couple of times each semester. Know that we're here to support you and look forward to working with you throughout your first year at St. Cloud State.
ACE staff can also assist new students in securing assistance from Student Accessibility Services, Multicultural Student Services, Counseling and Psychological Services and the multitude of services available to all St. Cloud State students.
Interested in making an appointment with us? Give us a call at (320) 308-2931.
