Apply to ACC
When it comes to applying to ACC, there are no mountains to move. We make it easy to apply. ACC has an open-door admission, which means if you’re at least 17 and a high school graduate, GED certificate completer, homeschooled student, or a high school non-graduate, you’re welcome to apply. Even better: there’s no application fee! If you’re ready to take the first step toward an associate degree, or a certificate, or need a pathway to a 4-year public institution in Colorado, we invite you to Apply Now.
ACC's application will be open for each semester on the following dates:
- Summer: December 1 - June 30
- Fall: October 1 - October 15 (the following year)
- Spring: September 15 - March 15
