Advanced Placement (AP)
Advanced Placement courses give Monarch students another way to earn college credit. At the end of an AP course, students must pass a standardized national test to qualify for college credit. Qualifying grades on AP exams may earn anywhere from 3 to 6 credits for a single course to up to three years of college standing. AP results are widely accepted for credit at most U.S. universities (approximately 3,800) and at approximately 640 international schools in 46 countries. Check which institutions grant how many credits for each AP course.
