AP Credit Policy

Loyola awards credit for appropriate performance on the Advanced Placement (AP) tests administered by the Educational Testing Service (ETS). In order to qualify for credit based on AP tests, students must have the scores sent directly to Loyola from ETS. Each academic department at Loyola determines the qualifying scores and the amount of credit awarded for its discipline. Please reference the AP score chart (available on: https://www.loyola.edu/department/academic-advising/students/first-year/ap-ib-college-courses/) as a guide to determine for which courses you may receive credit or placement. A maximum of 60 credits may be earned through the combination of dual enrollment/transfer credits, Advance Placement (AP) credits, International Baccalaureate (IB) credits, or British A-Level credits. Loyola typically receives AP scores in late July. Students will be notified in writing (via Loyola email) by the Academic Advising and Support Center whether or not credit has been awarded.

For more information, view the credit policy on the college's website.
