How does AP (Advanced Placement) history affect my major/minor?
In order to receive credit for AP history, you must take the AP exam and have your score sent to Purdue. • If you receive a score of 4 or 5 on the European History exam you will receive 3 credits for History 104 (Introduction to the Modern World). • If you receive a score of 4 or 5 on the World History exam you will receive 3 credits for History 105 (Survey of Global History). • If you receive a score of 4 or 5 on the American History exam, you will receive 3 credits each for History 151 and 152 (American History to 1877 and American History since 1877). AP exam credit satisfies the same requirements as History 104, 105, 151 and 152.
