Students may be granted college credit for Advanced Placement tests (AP Tests). The following chart lists the advanced placement subjects accepted at Eastern Connecticut State University and the amount of credit that may be awarded. AP credit awards are similar to transfer credit in that they are not calculated into the student's cumulative grade point average.
Please note that the chart represents a general outline of AP credit. In all cases, credit is available only for grades of 3 or higher.
