The Advanced Placement (AP) program of the College Entrance Examination Board (CEEB) is accepted by the College of Charleston. Students who enroll in a class for which they have received AP credit will not receive credit for taking the class, although the grade may be included in their GPA. Students who wish to decline AP credit for a class must download and complete a Decline AP Credit form. A request to decline AP credit must be submitted prior to taking the class. Credit will not be awarded for individuals sitting for the Advanced Placement exams after graduating from high school.
