Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning
Coming Fall 2026!
Atlantic Cape’s Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) and Machine Learning (M.L.) program will prepare students to build, assess and responsibly deploy intelligent systems while developing industry-ready skills for today’s technology-driven careers.
Atlantic Cape was awarded a $474K grant in 2025 by the National Science Foundation (NSF) to develop a comprehensive associate degree and one-year certificate programs that will increase access to AI technologies education for the College’s students throughout Atlantic and Cape May counties. Atlantic Cape’s Associate Degree in Applied Science Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning will start during the Fall 2026 Semester and is actively accepting students into this new and exciting cohort.
“We will prepare students for high-demand careers in A.I. and M.L. by equipping them with the commercial applications of A.I. technologies to thrive in a rapidly-evolving technological landscape. Students will benefit from a curriculum that will efficiently prepare them for employment in the A.I. field."

College costs less than you think, especially with financial aid.
Filling out the FAFSA is free and it’s the key to grants, state aid, and even tuition-free college.
Start your FAFSA at studentaid.gov and use Atlantic Cape’s school code: 002596. If you are a resident of NJ, you will receive an email instructing you to fill out the NJ State Financial Aid application once the FAFSA application is processed. Be sure to fill it out too as you can save even more through state aid!
Not a U.S. citizen? No problem - you may still qualify for financial aid through New Jersey. Just complete the NJ Alternative Financial Aid Application instead of the FAFSA.
Need help? We’ve got you. Just ask your Specialist or stop by the One-Stop.
You can register online through your Atlantic Cape Connect portal via the Self Service card or meet with your Specialist in person.
We’ll make sure you stay on track with your goals and have a schedule that works for your life.

We encourage everyone to apply for financial aid – it’s free to do so and could save you money. Please fill out the FAFSA application and fill out the state aid section as well. Our school code is 002596. Scholarships are not just based on academic performance. New students will automatically be considered for scholarships.
