Advanced Placement
"Passion, Energy and Quality Thinking"
Earn university credit by successful completion of AP courses.
Advance Placement is really two things:
- A program of advanced studies intended to allow high school students to work at a university entrance level.
- An international program offering standardized exams which allow students, if successful on the exam, to obtain university credits.
