MODERNIZATION TO MEET PENT-UP DEMAND
Modernizing an industry.Composition of student housing should continue to transition toward more modern, purpose built supply.
Modernization is opportunity.
On-campus
– Primarily consists of residence halls built in the 1950’s-60’s designed for the Baby
Boom generation.
– The median age of existing on-campus housing exceeds 50 years old in ACC
markets.
– New purpose built living learning communities will replace these antiquated
dormitories with product meeting the needs of current students.
Off-campus
– Majority of current stock is low density alternate housing such as absentee
landlord communities and single family residences not designed for today’s
student.
– New purpose built development off-campus is replacing this sub-standard
alternate housing with modern purpose-built product.
– Current purpose built communities began in the mid 1990’s.
• The majority of early communities (pre-2010) were drive properties.
• Since 2010, the majority of development has been built pedestrian to
campus.1
Supply in 68 ACC University Markets2
1. According to the Company’s most recent annual review of overall market composition.
2. According to the Company’s analysis; estimated based on 2019 supply categories divided by academic year 2019/2020 preliminary enrollment within ACC’s 68 university markets. Purpose built reflects certain off-campus properties that may
lease by the unit rather than by the bed, but compete with ACC properties in the student housing market.

New Supply in ACC Markets 2006 – 2020E1
– The new supply landscape has remained consistent in ACC markets since our IPO, amounting to only 1.3% of enrollment each year, on average.
– At the current rate of new supply, the obsolete alternate student housing stock is decades away from achieving modernization.
– 2020 new supply in ACC markets is expected to be down 20% from 2019 levels.

During periods of M&A growth, ACC drives outsized same store revenue growth from occupancy improvement, while same store
revenue and NOI growth both benefit from platform efficiencies and scale.
Without M&A, same store revenue growth is limited to rental rate increases, which have improved with portfolio refinement, and the
benefits of occupancy, platform efficiency, and scale are lost.
As the long-term industry consolidator, ACC has significant opportunity to return to higher internal growth.

COVID-19 strategic response.In response to COVID-19, ACC adopted eight guiding principles to “do the right thing” by all stakeholders.
1) Maintain a healthy and academically oriented environment by implementing CDC guidelines in regard to cleaning,
sanitizing and social distancing.
2) Be compassionate and provide financial support to residents and their families financially impacted by the COVID-19 crisis.
3) Strive to ensure all ACC team members have a safe, healthy and productive work environment.
4) Work with ACE university partners to understand their individual unique challenges during the pandemic in an effort to help
them implement their plans and accommodate their decisions with regard to housing refunds.
5) Attempt to limit negative financial and operational impacts to the period directly associated with this crisis.
6) Adapt marketing and leasing strategies to successfully complete the 2020/2021 academic year lease-up.
7) Maintain ample balance sheet liquidity to withstand the duration of the crisis.
8) Reflect on lessons learned to improve future products, services and operational policies, as well as our investment
strategies and standards.

CURRENT BUSINESS UPDATE
Universities’ initial response to COVID-19.Universities’ decisions had unintended consequences that might have been avoidable with more time and data.
– Nearly all universities that ACC serves moved to some form of online education for the remainder of the Spring 2020
semester and urged students to vacate on-campus residence halls due in part to their inability to accomplish CDC
guidelines and meet social distancing standards in their older residence halls containing community restrooms.
– The universities’ decisions, made in crisis with a great sense of urgency and little time to fully assess the future
impact, had four unintended consequences:
1) For many students, their college housing is their only home, leaving them with nowhere to go;
2) Many students did not want to go home and risk exposing parents and grandparents who are likely in a higher risk category
for complications from COVID-19;
3) The manner in which universities, as landlords, required or “highly suggested” students leave on-campus housing fueled
demand for student refunds; and
4) The universities’ actions put public relations, media and, at times, political pressure on private, off-campus landlords to
consider giving refunds.
20
CURRENT BUSINESS UPDATE
Universities’ plan moving forward.University administrators are developing plans to resume in-person classes for the fall.
– To assist in reopening plans, ACC has reached out to its partner universities to provide student housing assessments and
market data regarding the availability of total student housing supply in their markets and how each product type enables
implementation of CDC social distancing guidelines.
– The majority of the 68 universities within ACC’s owned markets have publicized on their websites that they are working
towards holding in-person classes in the fall with some universities even working towards holding in-person classes for some
portion of the summer term.
– To more align their housing with CDC guidelines and consumer preferences, universities are considering de-densifying older,
community bath residence halls, which could increase the number of students requiring private off-campus housing.
– University administrators are implementing plans to accommodate remote work for at-risk students and staff and lower
overall classroom and on-campus facilities density.
– Universities are adjusting admittance ratios and deadlines to accomplish originally targeted enrollment levels.

In-person education leads to best student outcome.
– Benefits of in-person education.
• Active learning as a result of mentoring from instructors, tutoring from grad students,
and in-person experiences from labs and group projects.
• The exposure, debate, and collaboration with students of different belief systems and
socioeconomic backgrounds.
• The personal growth and life experiences that come from beyond the classroom.
– Drawbacks of online education.1
• Increases the probability that a student will drop out of school.
• Students average almost half a letter grade lower in online classes.
• Disproportionately negatively impacts the students struggling the most.
– 4-year graduates have been less impacted by the financial fallout
from COVID-19.
• Since December 2019, the unemployment rate for non-degree earners has increased
over 1,400 basis points while the labor force fell 9%.
• The unemployment rate spread between degree earners and non-degree earners
increased from 210 basis points to 970 basis points from December 2019 to April 2020.

ACC’s modern properties are a solution.ACC’s student housing properties remain desirable to students and parents.
– Modern student housing product types fulfill CDC social distancing
guidelines.
• Resident’s ability to personally control their environment and sanitization while performing
basic living functions.
• Ability of residents within a unit to effectively isolate within their residence and mitigate
interaction with larger groups.
• Spatial comfort during times of desired extended isolation.
– Student housing can be divided into three general product types
that meet these objectives to varying degrees.
• Apartment-style student housing.
• In-suite bathroom residence halls.
• Community bath residence halls.
– ACC’s modern housing remains desirable and continues to lease
under the premise that students will reside in their college
apartments whether classes are in-person or online.
• In the months of March and April, ACC experienced an increase in move-ins, welcoming
almost 1,500 new residents, many of which were displaced as a result of universities
closing on-campus housing.
• For the upcoming academic year, which includes the period during shelter-in-place orders,
ACC has had fewer cancellations than the prior year.

CURRENT BUSINESS UPDATE
Apartment-style student housing.Apartment-style beds make up 86% of ACC’s total portfolio.
Apartment-style student housing
represents the most desirable product
with in-unit bathrooms, living rooms
and full kitchens. This permits students
to easily control and sanitize their
overall environment.
During the pandemic, all of the
ACC student apartment
communities have remained open
and defined as essential
housing services by all
governmental entities that issued
shelter-in-place orders.
During the period of March 16th to April
17th, one of the greatest periods of
pandemic uncertainty,
we executed nearly 5,000 leases for Fall
2020 demonstrating the continued
desirability for ACC’s modern product
type among students and parents.

In-suite bathroom residence halls.In-suite bathroom residence hall beds make up 12% of ACC’s total portfolio.
In-suite bathroom residence halls (regardless of single or
double occupancy) are desirable in that students can
control and sanitize their unit and bathroom and they
provide some dining flexibility with microwaves and mini-
refrigerators.
For each meal service, residents rely upon the housing
provider to implement social distancing seating as well as
to adjust service operations to ensure touch contamination
amongst the diners is mitigated.

Community bath residence halls.Community bath residence hall beds make up only 2% of ACC’s total portfolio.
Community bath residence halls are
usually defined
as a series of double-occupancy
accommodations that share
communal bathrooms located outside
of the actual living unit
with as many as a dozen to several
dozen other floor residents.
These residence halls are
the least desirable in light of the
coronavirus, and offer the biggest
challenge in mitigating
the spread of infectious disease given
the need to use and share
facilities outside of your living unit with
a large number of students
outside of your unit household.
There are several ways to address the
challenges posed by this product type
including, but not limited to, unit
dedensification, installing automated
fixtures and antimicrobial surfaces and
extensive on-going cleaning and
sanitization by a full-time attendant.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks and uncertainties,which are difficult to predict. For discussions of some risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by theforward-looking statements, please refer to our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year endedDecember 31, 2019 under the heading “Risk Factors” and under the heading “Business - Forward-looking Statements” and subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q.We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, including our expected 2020 operating results, whether as a result of new information,future events, or otherwise.
This presentation contains certain financial information not derived in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Theseitems include earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), net operating income (“NOI”), funds from operations (“FFO”) and FFO-Modified(“FFOM”). The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) currently defines FFO as net income or loss attributable to common sharescomputed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from depreciable operating property sales, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, andafter adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The Company presents FFO because it considers FFO an important supplementalmeasure of its operating performance and believes it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs. We alsobelieve it is meaningful to present FFOM, which reflects certain adjustments related to the economic performance of its on-campus participating properties,impairment charges, losses on early extinguishment of debt related to property dispositions, and other non-cash charges. FFO and FFOM should not be consideredas alternatives to net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of the Company's financial performance or to cash flow from operatingactivities computed in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of its liquidity, nor are these measures indicative of funds available to fund its cash needs,including its ability to pay dividends or make distributions. The Company defines property NOI as property revenues less direct property operating expenses,excluding depreciation, but including allocated corporate general and administrative expenses.
