The University of Puget Sound may grant lower division credit for a student's results on an Advanced Placement (AP) Examination. The university's goal in granting credit for AP Exams is to award students a fair amount of credit for their advanced study in high school; to ensure that students are placed in the next appropriate course, should they continue to study in that discipline; and to direct students into courses that will supplement their academic achievement in high school. AP exam scores of 4 or 5 may apply as elective credit, to a major/minor, or, for students matriculating in Fall 2018 and subsequent semesters, as university core-fulfilling courses, as determined by the relevant academic department at Puget Sound.

We are located on the traditional homelands of the Puyallup Tribe. The Puyallup people have lived on and stewarded these lands since the beginning of time, and continue to do so today. We recognize that this land acknowledgement is one small step toward true allyship and we commit to uplifting the voices, experiences, and histories of the Indigenous people of this land and beyond. Located in a vibrant port city in the Pacific Northwest, Puget Sound is a leading national liberal arts and sciences university preparing students for success since 1888. In an ever-evolving world, we believe that the best preparation for the future is an education that exposes you to multiple perspectives, engages you in work that makes a difference in the world, and helps you discover who you are and what you have to offer. It's an education that transcends boundaries, teaches you to adapt to changing circumstances, and prepare for careers that might not yet exist. Our beautiful 97-acre campus supports connections with the world it serves, from the tide flats and urban energy of the entrepreneurial city of Tacoma, Washington to nearby Seattle, the Pacific Rim and beyond. A Puget Sound education is rooted in an inspiring confluence of histories and cultures and ideas, and centered on 2,000 undergraduate and graduate students who are open-minded, outward-reaching, and actively put their educations to work.
