Your net price is a college’s cost of attendance minus the grants and scholarships you receive. The net price you pay for a particular college is specific to you because it's based on your personal circumstances and the college’s financial aid policies.

For students entering in or after fall 2024, any AP credits for which a student earned a score of 4 or higher, and for which we have an equivalent subject area at Wesleyan will be listed on the student's transcript. No credit will be posted for exams with scores of 0 - 3. There is no limit to the number of AP credits that a student can post to their academic history, although only 2.0 pre-matriculation credits total may count toward graduation requirements.
