Advanced Placement Program

About the AP Program

The Advanced Placement Program® is a cooperative educational endeavor between secondary schools and colleges and universities. The program is sponsored by the College Board, and it provides motivated high school students with the opportunity to take college-level courses in a high school setting. Students who participate in the AP Program not only gain college-level skills, but in many cases they also earn college credit while they are still in high school. Typically, courses and examinations are taken by 11th and 12th grade students.
