Advanced Placement

The AP Program offers college-level courses and exams that you can take in high school.  Taking AP courses and exams in high school could give you an advantage in college by letting you:

Earn College Credit and Placement
Save Money and Time
Stand Out to Colleges
Keep Your Options Open

Nearly all colleges and universities in the United States grant credit and placement for qualifying AP scores. And research consistently shows that AP students are better prepared for college than students who don’t take AP, regardless of their exam score. They’re more likely to enroll and stay in college, do well in their classes, and graduate in four years. 

Taking AP can help you:

Get a Taste of College
Develop College Skills
Discover Your Passion
Boost Your GPA
