ADVANCED PLACEMENT CREDITS
Advanced Placement Credits
Students enrolled in Advanced Placement courses in their high school are administered the Advanced Placement examinations in May by the College Board, Princeton NJ. This test determines the extent to which they have succeeded in meeting the college level demands of the course descriptions. Applicants earning advanced placement grades are given advanced standing and college credit as appropriate.
To have the scores considered for credit, students should arrange to have their score report sent to Kutztown University by College Board.
Grades of '3' or higher on some AP exams may be considered for credit at KU.
If you have questions or concerns, please contact us.
