Advanced Placement (AP)


Marymount University participates in the College Board Advanced Placement Program and awards college credit to entering students with qualifying scores. Applicants who seek advanced placement because they have taken one or more of the Advanced Placement Examinations should have the examination results sent to the Office of Admissions prior to enrollment. First-semester freshmen who have earned scores of 3, 4, or 5 may be granted credit (without grades). Advanced credit earned in this manner by entering freshmen will fulfill any University or departmental graduation requirement. Transfer students must have the scores sent directly to Marymount's Office of Admissions if they wish to receive credit. For a list of AP subject examinations, the Marymount course for which a student may earn credit(s), and the score required to earn those credit(s), please see the AP information on the Web at www.marymount.edu/registrar/acbe04-05.html.
