AP INFORMATION
AP INFORMATION
Why AP? Research shows that students who take Advanced Placement courses and exams have better college outcomes than their peers. AP can save money on tuition, help develop college-level skills, increase your chances for college-specific merit scholarships, and give you more flexibility in college.
How does the GPA bump work? If a student takes an AP course for a full year and takes the exam, then that class will be calculated on a 5.0 GPA scale (regardless of the exam outcome).
How do I get college credit? In order for an AP course to count for postsecondary credit, students must take the AP exam and achieve a minimum required score. Different colleges require different minimum scores for each AP exam. You can see those requirements HERE. Each AP exam costs $99, but if a student is eligible for free/reduced lunch their exam fee drops to just $5.
