AP Credit Policy
AP credits applied toward graduation will be counted toward the 16-course limit in the department granting the credit unless the department specifically states that the credits do not count toward the major. AP credits do not fulfill distribution requirements. Only two AP credits may count towards the 36 credits required for graduation. Furthermore, AP credits count as nonstandard grading courses, a total of only five of which may count towards the credits required for graduation. The category of "non-standard grading" includes courses elected under the Pass/D/Fail option; AP, IB, A-Level, and other pre-college testing credits; and credit-bearing internships. Official AP Score reports must be reported to Middlebury College no later than the end of the student's second semester.
For more information, view the credit policy on the college's website.
