Pasadena City College

Students who have completed Advanced Placement Examinations of the College Entrance Examination Board shall receive credit for Pasadena City College courses as listed below. A grade of "Pass" will be assigned to each student who obtains a score of 3, 4, or 5, except as noted. Credit earned by Advanced Placement may be counted towards Associate Degree requirements and California General Education Transfer Curriculum (Cal-GETC). Please refer to archived College Catalogs as appropriate to see how Advanced Placement exams may be counted towards Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC), and CSU General Education Breadth (CSU GE) requirements. The UC Policy for AP credit can be found on the UC system website. The CSU also has a system-wide policy for AP that can be found on the CSU system website. The units earned from Advanced Placement do not apply toward the Pasadena City College residency requirements for graduation. To request credit, students must submit official copies of Advanced Placement Examination test scores with a Student Petition form to the Office of Admissions and Records. The following list has been approved by PCC's Curriculum and Instruction Committee, with restrictions as indicated.
