Academic Center for Excellence (ACE)

The Academic Center for Excellence (ACE) is Rochester University’s academic support and resource center. The ACE provides student-centered programs, resources, and services in order to develop independent and successful learners. Academic support services and resources include one-on-one in-person peer tutoring for foundational courses, online tutoring support, textbooks, calculator checkout, study skills support, computer and printer stations, and so much more. Centrally located near the cafeteria and cafe, the ACE offers an alternative place to study in close proximity to academic resources and assistance. During the traditional school year, tutoring is available on a walk-in basis or by appointment. For summer semesters, support is available by appointment only. Online support and academic resources are always available via Smarthinking, accessible from Moodle. For more information, please contact the ACE at 248.218.2173 or email acelab@rc.edu.
