Does Columbia grant advanced standing or credit for standardized examinations?
Yes, some advanced standing or credit may be granted for Advanced Placement, or International Baccalaureate courses. Only AP scores of 4 or 5 or IB scores of 6 or 7 (on higher level examinations) will be considered for advanced standing or credit. Columbia will grant a maximum of 16 credits toward the Bachelor’s degree. Credit may also be granted for British A-level marks of A or B. Students whose secondary work was in other national systems may be granted credit in certain disciplines, pending review by the appropriate department at Columbia. For more detail, please consult the appropriate Bulletin for either Columbia College or The Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science.
