What's new
First Week of Classes
The first week of the 2025-2026 school year began Monday, August 18. Students are encouraged to visit the Welcome Tables on the plaza in front of College Center to grab a campus map, learn about student services, get help finding their classes, and have any questions answered. Welcome Tables will be set up until Wednesday, August 20.
My daughter is a junior in high school and has decided to pursue a career in dental hygiene. We chose to visit ACM for an Open House to see if she liked it. Since we live four hours away, we planned to stay overnight, so we came a day early for her to sit in on a class - and to experience the greater Cumberland culture, too.
Even the President of ACM met her in the hall and talked, unhurried, personally. An hour later, he himself introduced her to other staff with personal details that he remembered about her!
From the Recruitment team to the Dental Hygiene faculty to the coaches to the president, our daughter is already known by name and expected to arrive on campus in a year. As parents, we’re thrilled for our daughter to have that kind of support when she leaves our nest.
Thank you for all the individual conversations that we got to have. God bless ACM!
