Taking Advanced Placement exams is an important part of all AP courses. iUniversity Prep encourages all students to take AP exams for the AP classes in which they have enrolled. Scoring well on an AP exam can often earn students college credit, saving a significant amount on tuition.
Whether or not you plan to take the AP exams, this email is for everyone. I have created step-by-step instructions on what you need to do now. Please read this email in its entirety.
