Student Orientation

Congratulations on your acceptance to ACC, the first step towards achieving your goals. Your next step is to complete Student Orientation.

During your 2-part Student Orientation experience, you will:

  • Learn strategies for being a successful college student
  • Discuss a plan for your academic pathway with your Academic Advisor
  • Register for your courses

Student Orientation is a requirement for all students who are attending college for the first time and is optional for transfer or re-admit students.

Special Note: Concurrent Enrollment Students

If you are taking college courses while still enrolled in high school, you will not yet need to participate in ACC's Student Orientation experience if you are taking all of your classes at your high school.

If you plan to take any of your courses at one of ACC's campuses, located in Littleton and Castle Rock, or through our online campus, you will need to complete the 2-part Student Orientation experience outlined below.
