3. Complete all John Jay enrollment next steps as listed on the Accepted Students webpage.

4. Submit a Fall 2024 Application for Prospective ACE Students to be considered to join the ACE Program.

Recruitment Update: Currently, ACE is accepting applications for Fall 2024. Students who are interested in joining ACE should complete the Fall 2024 Application for Prospective ACE Students to be considered for the ACE Program. There are limited spots in the ACE Program, and students are accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis.

*All students (except those who are unable to apply due to immigration status) must complete both FAFSA and TAP applications. We encourage those who do not meet eligibility requirements for federal and state aid to check eligibility and apply for funds through the New York State Dream Act.
