Do advanced placement examinations count for General Education credit?
Yes, but specific articulations apply. Students presenting a 4 or 5 on the advanced placement exam; 75 percent on the CLEP exam; or grades for which they have gotten credit from the British A-level, CEGEP, IB, or German Abitur may be able to apply the credit for up to four General Education courses. This applies only to courses taken prior to entering American University. See your academic advisor or consult our table of examinations and their approved articulations.
