Please set up and use your ACC email account right now. I have
already sent out messages to some of you and have not heard back.

Prerequisites: There
are two types of prerequisites for ACC courses: skill
prerequisites
(reading, writing and math competency) and course prerequisites.
Students registered in classes that have other courses as prerequisites
will be required to bring proof of completion of the appropriate
courses to the instructor during the first week of classes. You
do not have to bring proof of your skill levels-they are provided
to the instructor during the first week of classes. If you do
not have the prerequisites listed in the course schedule (both
skills and courses) you will have to withdraw from the class and
register for another course. If you do not withdraw the instructor
will do it for you and you will lose your tuition for the course.
Please consult with the instructor by email before the
semester begins if you have any questions.
