Advanced Placement (AP) courses allow you to take college-level course work in high school and receive credit from Oklahoma state colleges and universities. The courses cover a variety of academic subjects, such as art, biology, chemistry, computer science, economics, English, foreign languages, history, math and music. You must take a national AP exam in the subject and achieve a score of at least three in order to qualify for college credit. There may be a fee charged to take the AP exam. For more information about AP testing dates, fees and more, visit the College Board website.

You can also visit ShowWhatYouKnowOK.org to learn how previously earned college credit, licenses, certifications, military training, advanced standing scores, and knowledge gained through other learning experiences can be applied toward a degree program.

Contact the institution you plan to attend to get information on AP subjects and exam scores accepted for credit. You may also want to contact your high school counselor or email aicenhour@osrhe.edu.
