How do I get college credit for Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate (IB) classes?
Students may acquire up to 36 semester hours through credit by examination. Generally, AP credit is given for scores of 4 or 5, with the exception of English Language and Composition, which requires a score of 5, and Calculus BC, which requires a score of 3. IB credit is given for Higher Level scores of 5, 6, or 7 on the exams. Credit for British “A” Levels (A), French Baccalaureate (15+), Abitur, Baccalareat, and Maturita is also possible. At Trinity, credit is decided by individual departments in consultation with the registrar. Also, you may contact the Office of Admissions for a brochure that details the exams that give credit for specific courses.
