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, Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC), and CSU General Education Breadth 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. Students may earn credit for College Entrance Examination Board (CEEB) Advanced Placement (AP) Tests with scores of 3, 4, or 5. AP credit can be used to meet IGETC, CSU GE, and Associate degree general education and/or major requirements. Students must have the College Board send AP exam results to the Office of Admissions and Records (un-opened, hand carried copies will be accepted) for use on the Associate Degree or General Education patterns. Course credit and units granted at Pasadena City College may differ from course credits and units granted by a transfer institution or by another community college.
