Where’s the incentive to take AP, IB and other honors courses?
National data suggests that students who take challenging high school courses test better on the ACT and SAT. Better ACT and SAT scores will help students qualify for additional UW and other scholarships. Doing well in AP and IB courses (and corresponding exams) can also result in credit at UW. This means that you’ll have fewer credits to pay for down the road. This means your Hathaway Scholarship dollars will go further.
