Welcome to ACE

the Alliance College Experience Program 

The ACE program provides an opportunity for scholastically able and interested students in grades 11-12, the opportunity to experience more academically challenging coursework and to begin earning college credit while still enrolled in high school. This is in compliance with Oregon SB 300 which extends to high school students the option to earn high school and college credits concurrently.

ACE Students must remain in good standing in the program, it is your responsibility to: 

  • maintain good grades (a “C” or better) and complete your classes 

  • maintain exemplary attendance and behavior 

  • participate in state and/or federally mandated testing 

  • return any books that belong to ACA at the end of each term

 

ACE Students must be enrolled as 'full-time', which is either: 

  • 12 credit hours per trimester at the college of your choice or 

  • 9 credit hours per trimester at the college of your choice and 2 ACA classes

    • ACA classes may include: site-based class at ACA, C4Ps, online high school level classes, and work experience.

 

Every college class that was paid for by ACE funds will be transcribed on your high school transcript. ACE will not pay to repeat the same class. For every credit at the college, you will receive high school credits at a conversion of: 

  • 1 college credit for a 200+ level course = .25 ACA credits 

  • 1 college credit for a 100 level or below course = .20 ACA credits
