Advanced Placement (AP) Program

The University of Arizona accepts Advanced Placement (AP) exam scores (College-Level Examination Program, Cambridge International, DSST, and International Baccalaureate exam scores) as a basis for awarding credit toward a degree. Students who complete AP classes, accelerated or honors classes in their high school may take AP exams prior to coming to the University. Exams are administered through the College Board at high schools each May.

AP credit is considered credit by examination at the UA. Credit is determined from the AP credit table that applies to the date when you took the exam. Credits you earn based on your exam performance may be counted toward your major or minor fields of study or General Education requirements. See the AP credit table below, and contact a University of Arizona academic advisor to confirm course credit towards specific programs.
