Students may earn credits and course equivalents for College Board Advanced Placement (AP) exams. Minimum scores are determined by individual academic departments. Scores below three do not earn credit in any discipline. The Registrar’s Office receives AP scores for incoming first year students in July. Students may not receive both AP credit and credit for the course taken at the University. If a student is uncertain whether or not he or she has earned AP credit, he or she should avoid registering for the course for which credit may be awarded. Credit will only be given for examinations in disciplines appropriate to a liberal arts institution. For the International Baccalaureate Exam, the University will evaluate Higher Level exams only. Please note: Foundations Program Forum courses must be taken at Assumption and may not be completed by means of transfer courses or AP credit.
