AP Assessment Each course has a required AP exam. AP exams provide a standardized measure of what you know. You must take the AP exam to get the weighting. You do not have to take the AP course to take the AP exam. Colleges require a minimum of 3 or higher on an AP exam to earn college credit.

Advantages Advanced Placement Earn credit or advanced standing at most of the nation's colleges and universities with appropriate scores. Passing is generally 3 or higher, but each college determines the score it requires to grant college credit. Ask the admission counselor what the AP credit policy is for the college you plan to attend. Improve your writing skills and sharpen your problem- solving techniques. Develop the study habits necessary for tackling rigorous course work.

Costs Associated with AP The State pays for all exam fees for the AP exams.

Philosophy of Dual Credit Courses To provide opportunities for qualified high school juniors and seniors to complete college-level courses while still enrolled in high school. To provide opportunities for students to earn dual credit (high school and college credit) when courses include both college and high school requirements.

Dual Credit Courses 4 Year Transfer  English 101 and 102, USC-L  US History 101 and 102, USC-L  Psychology 101, USC-L  Criminal Justice 101, USC-L  Teacher Cadet 101, Winthrop  Digital Art and Design, Winthrop  Project Lead the Way Courses, USC

Project Lead The Way University of South Carolina  Introduction to Engineering Design  Principles of Engineering  Digital Electronics

College Credit for PLTW Engineering Courses At end of each PLTW course, register to USC. Student must have an 1100 SAT or overall B average in high school to register. Student must take the PLTW College Exam and score a 70 or above. Student earns Dual Credit weighting for the PLTW course IF these qualifications are met.

Benefits of Dual Credit Courses Dual Credit Courses are not dependent upon a score from a national exam. Dual Credit Courses will be part of your college transcript when you enter college. Dual Credit Courses in core areas are transferable to all in-state public colleges, some out-of-state public colleges, and a few private colleges. Check with the college you are interested in attending to see how courses transfer.

Requirements for Dual Credit USC-L classes 3.0 cumulative GPA Teacher Cadet 101, WU Overall 3.0 GPA or higher, teacher recommendation, and application

Cost Analysis What do you pay?* USC-Lancaster (each course) $ for 3-hour course or no cost if student takes 6 hrs/sem Cost of textbooks Winthrop $ University of South Carolina $ each course PLTW *COSTS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE.

How Much Can I Save? Show Me the Money Each course at Winthrop, USC-L, or USC costs college students $ Course costs are subject to change.

Cost: When Do I Pay? Students will register to be a college student before the course begins. Money is due before the course begins. Each school will provide those deadlines. PLTW Engineering courses with USC— money is due at the end of the course when student registers to USC and takes EOC college exam.

IB Diploma students perform better in post-secondary education than their peers.

Students may earn college credit for (HL) higher level courses with scores of 4 or higher. Each college determines the exact score it requires to earn college credit. Some colleges allow college credit for (SL) standard level courses. Students should ask the admission counselor what the university will count for college credit. Students “ place out ” of classes requiring a placement exam (Math, Foreign Language). ADVANTAGES College Credits
