The Academic Center for Excellence (ACE) provides students with a central resource for information about the academic
programs, student support services, and other opportunities available at CSU. The
Center assists students in exploring various majors and refers them, when appropriate,
to related campus resources such as the Career Center and the Counseling Center. Advisors
in the Academic Center for Excellence work closely with advisors in the academic departments
to provide specialized advising to transfer students, first-year students who have
not selected their majors, and returning students who are considering changes in their
majors. The faculty and staff of the Academic Center for Excellence are supportive
of students and encourage them to make responsible and informed decisions about their
programs of study. The Office of Tutorial Services is located in the Academic Center
for Excellence and provides free tutorial assistance for learning support courses
in reading and writing and also core curriculum courses not served by the Math and
Science Learning Center or the Writing Center. Free seminars and workshops provide
information and strategies that assist students in making satisfactory progress in
their chosen fields of study.
