High School Articulation Agreements

Earn Credit for High School Classes

What is articulated credit?

Articulated credit is a program that allows high school students to earn college credit for completing classes that meet college-level standards while in high school. Select high schools have pre-existing articulation agreements with Atlantic Cape that establish pre-approved courses that students must meet a minimum grade requirement in. Participating high schools and courses may be found below. Articulated credit will be awarded upon evaluation and after the student enrolls at Atlantic Cape.

The articulated credit program helps you save time and money by earning credit for the coursework you have already completed in high school. This allows you to avoid duplicating (and paying for) these same classes in college, allowing you to get a head start on your degree or certificate. Most articulated program courses are specific to your chosen academic pathway and often include career and technical programs, such as culinary, design, and law enforcement & public safety.

How do I submit my articulated credit?

The procedure to earn Atlantic Cape articulated credit is as follows:

Step One

Request Articulated Credit

Create an account with Atlantic Cape to apply using “Choice #1 – Standard Undergraduate Application.” Note: To be eligible for articulated credit you must enroll as a student at Atlantic Cape within five years of your high school graduation.

Once your application is submitted, you will receive an acceptance letter within 24 hours and access to your Atlantic Cape Connect student portal. You will also be provided with a student Buccaneer email account. All Atlantic Cape communications will be sent to your Buccaneer account, so make sure to check that account periodically. Pro tip: set up email forwarding to never miss a message!
