AP Credit Policy

To receive credit, Advanced Placement examinations must be taken prior to admission to the university. If a student enters the university with credit for an advanced placement course and then takes an equivalent course at the university for credit, the advanced placement credits (and lab class waiver, if applicable) will be disallowed. The credits and grade for the Hopkins course will appear on the academic record. The advanced placement exam title remains on the record as well, but the credit value is converted to zero. This policy also applies to IB credit, GCE credit, and other foreign exams.
