<p>ACES means undecided. No, you don’t have to do 2 years of anything. I’m not sure where you got this idea.</p>
<p>You were placed in ACES because you either weren’t good enough for engineering or there wasn’t enough room left in engineering.</p>
<p>I don’t think you read the web site, because it does give you useful information. Right here ([University</a> of Connecticut](<a href=“http://www.aces.uconn.edu/html/declaringmajors.htm]University”>http://www.aces.uconn.edu/html/declaringmajors.htm)), it gives you the requirements for applying to the different schools/colleges (departments).</p>
<p>For engineering, it very clearly says:
“Students can apply for a school change to the School of Engineering after completing at least one semester. To initiate the process contact the office of the Assistant Dean for Undergraduate Education at 486-5466.”</p>
<p>Again, ACES is just undecided. That means you can change into any CLAS (college of liberal arts and sciences) or CANR (college of agriculture and natural resources) major at any time. The other schools (business, education, engineering, fine arts, nursing) have their own requirements which are all listed on the page I just linked to.</p>
