The Universities at Shady Grove (USG) — together with its nine university partners — is delighted to be part of this groundbreaking partnership with Montgomery County Public Schools and Montgomery College. At USG, we are committed to supporting ACES students in their last two years as they work towards completing a bachelor’s degree.

After Montgomery College (MC), students transfer to one of the nine top Maryland universities that offer a variety of undergraduate programs on our conveniently located campus in Rockville. While at USG, students will benefit from additional scholarships, support through an ACES coach, leadership initiatives, and internship opportunities.

Through the ACES @ USG Program, students will receive:

  • Transfer guidance from ACES Coaches at MC and at USG
  • Continued 1-on-1 support from an ACES Success Coach
  • Interactive workshops geared towards enhancing academic success and career preparedness
  • Career immersion experiences
  • Additional scholarship opportunities
  • Campus & community leadership opportunities
  • Graduation celebration and other special events

When an ACES student graduates with their bachelor’s degree they are equipped to join the region’s workforce and contribute back to the local economy.
