You are a Dreamer if you came to the United States as a child, have lived here most of your life, and are pursuing your education—even if you don’t have legal immigration status. The name comes from the DREAM Act of New Jersey (Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors), a law to help young immigrants build a future here. At Atlantic Cape, we welcome and support Dreamers every step of the way.
Below, you'll find the Steps to Enrollment. Follow these steps to register for classes and begin your journey at Atlantic Cape.
Steps To Enrollment
We’re glad you’re here. Below you’ll find the steps to enrollment. Just follow each step to register for classes and get started on your path forward.
Not sure what you want to study? You’re not alone. Lots of students start college still figuring it out.
Your Student Services Specialist can help you explore career paths and choose a major that fits your goals. We've categorized our majors into nine Guided Pathways that can help you determine your college concentration.
Want to start on your own? Try our free online tool Career Coach to match your interests with real jobs and salaries.
College costs less than you think, especially with financial 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 - do not complete 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.
Want to see the schedule for the upcoming semesters? Visit our Course Catalog & Class Schedules page. NOTE: Atlantic Cape Connect keeps the most up-to-date class schedules.
To reserve your spot in class, you’ll need to make a payment, apply for aid, or set up a payment plan. If you apply for financial aid, payment is not due until your award is processed.
You can take care of it all through Atlantic Cape Connect or at the Bursar’s Office. Check out our Cost and Payments page for more information.
We accept all major cards, E-Check, and cash. Payment plans are available for fall and spring semesters.
