AP Credit Policy

Entering students who have satisfactory scores on AP Examinations may receive credit in applicable areas of the curriculum. We have a PLNU AP Guide and do not follow the standard recommendations by the College Board. Credit given varies per department. The only subject we allow a score of 2 is Calculus BC, while some subjects require a score of 3 for credit and others require at least a 4 or 5.
