ACE MENTOR PROGRAM- for students interested in Architecture, Construction or Engineering. The initial application will be online this year. Please apply at www.acementor.org. You should click "New Student" unless you applied ONLINE last year, in which case you are a "Returning Student." Be sure to select Seattle, as there are several custom fields that need to be filled out, such as what days you'd like to meet on, friends you'd like to be teamed with, firms you'd like to work with, etc.

We anticipate 6 Seattle teams and 3 Eastside teams. We expect our teams too fill up quickly, the Eastside especially. If you want to be on an Eastside team it is imperative you indicate that or you will be put on a Seattle team. Once you are assigned to a team we discourage switching, because it's an administrative nightmare. So please consider this and apply accordingly. Teams are first-come, first-served. If we fill up, we will create a waiting list and give preference to seniors and returning students. The online process will time-stamp your application. However, you are NOT accepted into ACE until I receive in my inbox a signed copy of the Parental Consent Form which is available online or attached. Either the National version or Seattle version will suffice. You have exactly two weeks from the time you apply to turn in this form or you will forfeit your spot in the waiting list to be assigned to a team. Even thought the online form says "You will be required to bring this form with you to your first ACE meeting," we require the form ahead of time in Seattle. No one will be permitted to attend an ACE meeting unless the signed form has been received.

You can email the form to acementor@mka.com, fax it to 206-292-1201, or mail it to the address below.
