It is VERY IMPORTANT, as a new student at Allegany College of Maryland, that you attend a New Student Orientation Session! You will learn about the many services that are available to you as a student, how to get involved and succeed academically, safety policies/services, and you'll also have opportunities to engage with College staff, faculty and other students. Please see below for details.

Cumberland Campus - We will be offering both in-person Orientation sessions and two evening Zoom Orientation session for the Fall 2024 semester.

If the available sessions below not work for your schedule or you're not comfortable with attending an in-person or Zoom session, our Brightspace New Student Orientation module is perfect for you. This option can be completed online, at your own pace. An email with information on how to access this module will be sent to students who are registered for Fall classes via their ACM student email in August.
