Advanced Placement (AP) Credit
Some high schools offer Advanced Placement classes, which give their students a chance to complete college level work during high school. Students who earn a minimum qualifying grade of 4 on certain AP exams are granted credit for select RMCAD courses.
If you completed AP classes we will require a copy of your AP Grade Report at least 30 days before the start of your first term at RMCAD. Contact The College Board or visit their web site at http://www.collegeboard.com to learn how to request your AP Grade Reports.
College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) Credit
The College-Level Examination Program® or CLEP provides students of any age with the opportunity to demonstrate college-level achievement. Students take a series of exams that allow them to "test out" of certain undergraduate college courses.
We grant class credit for CLEP exams that meet a minimum qualifying score of 50 and are comparable to RMCAD course requirements. Please submit a copy of your CLEP transcript with your application materials so we can evaluate and award credit.
Contact The College Board or visit their web site at http://www.collegeboard.com to learn more about CLEP, and to learn how to obtain your CLEP transcripts.
