AP Credit Policy
Students who submit scores for Advanced Placement Exams and/or College Level Examination Program (CLEP) Exams administered by the College Entrance Examination Board will have their records evaluated by the Registrar in accordance with standards established by the appropriate departments to determine proper placement and credit. College credit granted will be treated as credit without a grade; such credit will count toward graduation and may be used in fulfilling requirements. Credit may be allowed as indicated above only if the student was not obliged to use the credit to meet minimum high school graduation requirements.
For more information, view the credit policy on the college's website.
