ADULT COLLEGE ENTRY SEMINAR BEGINS SEPTEMBER 2 AT ABAC

Anyone who is considering beginning or re-entering college may benefit from the Adult College Entry (ACE) Seminar available at Abraham Baldwin College beginning Sept. 2.

The ACE Seminar provides a system of support services that prepares adults for college entry and success. In the seminar, ABAC faculty and staff members will teach students how to apply for admission and financial aid and how to prepare for placement testing. Career and transfer programs available at ABAC will also be discussed.

The seminar will meet 11 Tuesdays from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. through Nov. 11. Since class size is limited to 15 students, students should register early. The cost is $49 and includes the following: a $20 application fee if the student decides to apply to ABAC, a textbook, and waiver of ABAC 1000—Freshman Seminar as a graduation requirement upon successful completion of the ACE Seminar and enrollment at ABAC.

“In the ACE Seminar, students will be with other adults who are also just starting college,” Dr. Gail Dillard, ABAC’s Director of Evening and Off-Campus Programs, said. “They will learn valuable skills to help them succeed in college, including note taking, time management, and various study skills in a program tailored to their personal needs and goals.”

Regular fall semester classes begin Aug. 18 at ABAC. For additional information about the ACE Seminar, contact Dillard at (229) 386-7154, or e-mail her at gdillard@abac.edu.
