AP Credit Policy
Morehouse encourages prospective students in secondary schools to take the Advanced Placement (AP) Tests given by the College Board. In most departments, course credit is granted for a score of four (4) or above, which may be applied towards the degree requirements. In a few departments, a score of three (3) will be accepted. Students who present scores of five (5) or above on certain foreign examinations may, on a course by course basis, be awarded the same credit as noted above.
For more information, view the credit policy on the college's website.
