Students who make a score of three (3) or higher on the Advanced Placement (AP) test will be given credit for the course at East Central. Generally an AP score of three (3) will result in awarding three (3) semester hours credit in the subject area. More than three (3) semester hours credit may be awarded for AP scores of four (4) or five (5) when approved by the appropriate division chairs working in conjunction with departmental faculty and the Vice President for Instruction. Academic credit established through AP will not carry a letter grade and will not be included in calculating the quality point average.
