AP and Dual-Credit Equivalency
High school students may receive credit at 国标麻豆视频APP by transferring equivalent courses from other accredited institutions or earning high scores on recognized exams.
- We award a maximum of 24 hours of pre-matriculation credits to first-year students from all sources (e.g., Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, dual-credit, all other college credit). Students who exceed the 24-hour limit may choose which credits will be awarded and you may adjust your choices later subject to the constraints of any other College policies.
- We will not award credit for any course or examination completed prior to the start of your junior year in high school.
- Regardless of credit granted, students must complete at least one general education course in residence in the following three areas: social studies, science, and fundamental questions.
