Miami Dade College uses the minimum scores, credits, and guidelines for awarding credit for exams established by the State of Florida's Articulation Coordinating Committee (ACC). The chart below indicates how AP credit will be utilized at MDC. Students transferring to a public senior institution within the state are assured that AP credit will transfer when earned as a part of a completed Associate in Arts degree. However, it is the student's responsibility to contact the senior institution if any question exists concerning the acceptance of AP scores. All interested students are encouraged to see an academic advisor before registering for the examinations. Students may earn up to 75% of their degree (or up to 45 semester credits) at MDC through credit-by-exam options. More information about AP, including recent test information guides, can be found online at https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/.
