AP Credit Policy
The College recognizes Advanced Placement (AP) achievement by awarding credit to students who score three or above on AP exams. An AP equivalency table outlines how credit will be awarded and is maintained on the college website. Credit is applied to a student's record after the student has been admitted to the College and after official transcripts or score reports have been received by the Admissions and Records office.
