ACE Madness

ACE students discussing policy.

Whether you are a basketball fan or not, March Madness is upon us. And there is just as much going on in the ACE Department to keep our students, staff, and prospective students busy! Last month, future Illini received their admission decisions, and ACE Ambassadors have been busy taking them on campus tours, and calling prospective students. We are so excited to have the next generation of Illini in the Fall of 2016. Another big event at the end of February was the ACE Financial Planning Hiring Conference. Over 15 companies traveled to Urbana- Champaign to hire for internships and full time jobs. In the beginning of March, Explore ACES welcomed high school students onto campus to explore everything The College of ACES has to offer. Students played games and talked to current Illini. As the next generation of Illini prepare to take on UIUC in the fall, it is also time for our seniors to graduate. Although we will miss them, this May, our ACE seniors will go out into the real world! As we head into April, there is plenty going on to keep all of our ACE students busy!
