AP Credit Policy
A student must have passed the Advanced Placement (AP) exam in his or her particular subject area(s) with a score of 3, 4, or 5. Credit for AP examinations is awarded based upon the State Articulation Coordinating Committee (ACC) credit by exam guidelines for state universities and Florida college system institutions. Up to 45 credits of coursework may be earned through AP exam credit. AP credits awarded will be recorded on the student's transcript. Credit for examinations may be earned in those courses where students have not already earned academic credit. The institution will comply with all applicable state regulations regarding AP credit.
