College students are invited to join ACE at the reduced membership rate of $10 per year. Club membership is required to apply for ACE scholarships. Additionally, a limited number of student members can attend the Club’s monthly luncheon meeting at no cost thanks to the generous support of individual members and member agencies. ACE luncheon meetings present speakers that offer a chance for students to learn about careers, current trends and new developments in the advertising industry. Membership and attendance at ACE meetings are a great way to network, and Club members are very interested in sharing their knowledge with students who want to pursue careers in advertising and related fields. ACE also encourages students to get involved in the Club by serving on committees such as the Annual Auction and Public Service Committees and by assisting with the ADDYs.
