ADVANCED PLACEMENT CREDIT UVA Wise accepts advanced credit from Advanced Placement Scores (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), Cambridge, and College Level Examination Program (CLEP). Acceptance of credits is based solely on faculty evaluation. Faculty review advanced placement tests every three years or as needed and the acceptable scores and awarding of credit is placed on the UVA Wise website. Please visit the placement chart to review or download information for each of the advanced placement areas. If you have specific questions, please contact the Office of the Registrar via email or call 276-328-0117. A department may excuse a student from taking the beginning courses in a required sequence of courses if the department determines the student ready for advanced work. The department may consider performance in secondary school, scores on the College Entrance Examination Board achievement or advanced placement tests, or scores on a departmental exam in determining the student's preparedness. Substitution of a higher course will not be required. Exceptionally able and well prepared students may also be awarded advanced standing credit. These are credit hours which may be counted toward a degree. Advanced standing credit is granted to students entering the College from high school or transferring from another college, with permission of the department concerned and sufficient scores on departmental exams covering the full scope and content of required courses. Consult departmental descriptions for other requirements.
