EARNING COLLEGE CREDIT or PLACEMENT

  • Students who take and pass an Advanced Placement Exam may by eligible to receive college level credit for the course. However, it is the individual colleges and universities, not the College Board or the AP Program, that grants course credit and placement. Policies vary widely so it is up to the student to obtain the college's AP policy in writing. You can find this information in the college's catalog or on its Web site, or by using the AP Credit Policy Info search at www.collegeboard.com/ap/creditpolicy
    IMPORTANT: The best source of information regarding AP credit is obtained directly from the college/university to which you may apply.

ADVANCED PLACEMENT SUMMER WORK FOR FALL (ALISO NIGUEL HS ONLY)

  • Students enrolled in AP courses at Aliso Niguel High School must (for most courses) complete summer assignments to be turned in the first day of school. AP teachers hold meetings in their classrooms during June  to hand out the summer assignments and to explain course requirements for the following year. Students who do not attend the meeting and/or do not complete the summer AP coursework, may be ineligible to continue in the class in September and may be assigned to a lower level of that subject.
