AP International University Recognition
Outside the U.S., universities in more than 60 countries recognize AP Exam scores in the admission process and/or for credit and advanced placement.
Individual colleges and universities, not the College Board or the AP Program, set admission and AP recognition criteria for their respective programs. AP Exam performance is typically considered within the student's complete application.
Because admission policies vary from school to school, interested students should contact the institution directly for further information regarding application procedures and policies. Appropriate contact information and URLs are provided within the listings below.
