AP Credit Policy
SUNY Niagara accepts credit for Advanced Placement (AP) courses when a student scores 3 or higher on an AP exam. In some cases, students must contact individual departments to learn how their AP credits are applied to a specific program. For example, SUNY Niagara ordinarily awards only elective credits for AP courses in art. To be considered for credit in core Art courses, a student must present a portfolio to the SUNY Niagara art department faculty.
For more information, view the credit policy on the college's website.
