Your net price is a college’s cost of attendance minus the grants and scholarships you receive.

Use the college’s Net Price calculator for the most accurate estimate of your net price.

Students who request college credit or fulfillment of College requirements for Advanced Placement (AP) examinations taken in high school (i.e., before a student matriculates in the College) are asked to submit an official report of their scores on the AP tests given by the College Entrance Examination Board. The decision to grant credit is reported at the end of the first year in residence and units of credit awarded appear on the student's official academic record.
