Advanced Placement Examination

Students from high schools that participate in the Advanced Placement Program may earn credit through examinations provided by the College Entrance Examination Board (CEEB). The examinations are administered at the conclusion of a college-level course taught in participating high schools. The scores are forwarded, upon student request, to the college of choice.

In accordance with North Dakota University System policy, a minimum score of three is required to receive credit for the following Advanced Placement (AP) examinations. If NDSU does not have an equivalent course, free elective credit may be awarded. Credit earned through AP is not residence credit and may not be used to satisfy residence-credit requirements for graduation. A complete and current listing of AP examinations and their NDSU equivalent courses is available at http://www.ndsu.edu/prospective_students/about/credit_by_exam.shtml#APChart.
