Taking AP classes can help students:

Build skills and confidence.

• AP students learn essential time management and study skills needed for college and career success.
• They dig deeper into subjects that interest them and learn to tap their creativity and their problem-solving skills to address course challenges.

Get into college.

• Students who take AP courses send a signal to colleges that they’re serious about their education and that they’re willing to challenge themselves with rigorous coursework.
• 85% of selective colleges and universities report that a student’s AP experience favorably impacts admission decisions.

Succeed in college.

• Research shows that students who receive a score of 3 or higher on AP Exams typically experience greater academic success in college and have higher graduation rates than their non-AP peers.

Save time and money in college.

• Research shows that students who take AP courses and exams are much more likely than their peers to complete a college degree on time—which means they avoid paying for, for example, a fifth year of tuition.
• Most colleges and universities nationwide offer college credit, advanced placement, or both for qualifying AP Exam scores. This can mean:
  • Fulfilling graduation requirements early
  • Being able to skip introductory courses or required general-education courses
