IU Northwest awards credit for a variety of College Board Advanced Placement (AP) Exams. With advanced credit, you can enroll in upper-level classes sooner and add a major, minor, or certificate and still graduate in four years. Individual IU schools, departments, and programs determine the credit awarded for each exam and score. To be considered for credit, have a copy of your score report sent to the IU Northwest Office of Admissions. Note: UNDI indicates "undistributed" credit that will not be assigned to a specific course but will count toward your college degree.
