What is the Advanced Placement (AP)?

• Advanced Placement classes are rigorous courses students take to prepare for the Advanced Placement exam.
• Passing the exam earns students college credit that will transfer to almost all public universities in the country.
  • Earning a 3 or better earns college credit.
  • Earning a 2 or better qualifies a student as “remediation free”.
• There is no prerequisite to take AP Classes.

What is Concurrent Enrollment (CE)?

Concurrent enrollment allows students to earn free college credit while still in high school, giving them a head start on their college and career goals. Students gain exposure to the academic challenges of college while in their supportive high school environment or on a college campus, earning college and high school credits simultaneously.

• Concurrent Enrollment (CE) courses allow students to obtain college credit by successfully passing the course – no test is needed to earn credit.
  • Students must take the ACCUPLACER Exam and meet a certain score to be able to take these classes.
  • Students must get a C or better to get college credit.
