Queens College offers two regular 15-week semesters (Fall, September–December, and Spring, February–May) and four summer sessions. ACE classes are held during the evenings and on Saturdays and Sundays. Weekday courses are offered to ACE students as they progress into regular college classes.

The suggested plan for the returning adult is to begin as a part-time student, taking from 3 to 11 credits per semester. Full-time students take from 12 to 18 credits per semester.

Application Process
Candidates for the ACE program apply directly to Queens College with either a Freshman or Transfer application. Students must request official transcripts from their high school and any college previously attended (forms for transcript requests are included in the ACE application packet).
