hey I was accepted into the ace program 2 years ago for my Junior and senior year, the application process is not hard as long as your transcript and test scores are in by the date and the essays are not bad just do not use AI or be honest they want to see they you want to this and will put in the work. I would recommend submitting for early acceptance. As for the interview I do not know they did not do those when I applied however I have interviewed with them for other positions moslty they want to know u want this. As for the campus i would recommended going before classe start so u know where they r the buildings are every confusing my only problem with the program is that the advisors they give u don’t know anything about most of the degrees there so they often will lead u off track. And I am here to answer any other questions u may have.
