The credit may be subject credit for use on a minor or prerequisite to a major, or credit toward general education requirements, or elective units toward graduation. A student cannot receive credit for a UC San Diego course that duplicates AP credit. Students should be advised that college courses taken before or after attending UC may duplicate AP examinations. Additionally, exams may duplicate each other (for example, AP and IB exams in the same subject area) . If a student does duplicate an exam with another exam of the same subject content, and/or an exam with a college course, credit will be awarded only once.
