Credit is not granted for an AP score if the student has completed a college course that is equivalent to the course for which the student would receive AP credit.  \nWhen the credit granted for a score of 3 on an AP exam is an Arts & Sciences credit that fulfills a specific Arts & Sciences General Education or CMDI Core category, CU Boulder advises students that they are likely to be more successful in their college career if they fulfill that Core category with a CU Boulder course and use their AP credit as elective credit. There is no guarantee that all AP credit will apply to a specific degree program.
