By choosing to take Honors and Advanced Placement courses in high school, students demonstrate that they are willing to challenge themselves in their academic career. These courses not only help form a favorable impression of the applicant to the reviewer, they can result in college credit.

Students who earn scores of four or five on Advanced Placement exams and/or scores of five through seven on International Baccalaureate exams taken at the higher level can earn college credit up to four units per examination.
