III. Advanced Placement Program
Students who complete college-level work in high school under the Advanced Placement Program sponsored by the College Entrance Examination Board and who receive creditable scores in examinations administered by that board may, after admission to PSU, be granted credit toward a bachelor’s degree in comparable college courses. Students may request their official transcript online using their College Board account at apscores.org, or by mailing a signed, written request to AP Services, PO Box 6671, Princeton, NJ, 08541-6671. Students who took the AP more than four years ago, must use the Archived AP Scores Request Form found at https://apscore.collegeboard.org/scores/score-reporting.
Credit awarded for Advanced Placement
The amount of credit a student may receive for Advanced Placement Examinations and the scores required for the award of credit vary according to department and may be found in the AP Table at www.pdx.edu/admissions/advanced-placement-program. The amount of credit and the exact course equivalency is determined by the PSU department. Important: Any student with a score of four or five (or three in mathematics) must arrange an interview with the department chair for purposes of further guidance.
