Students take the classes as part of their high school schedule and apply them toward their graduation requirements, typically whether or not they take the exams at the end. Without the exam, students still apply the class grade to their high school GPA. However, taking the standardized exam may enable a student to apply the exam score for college credit for an identified comparable college course or a college-level elective (depending on the course and the score) . CPPE programs include Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB) and Cambridge International‘A’ Levels (CLE) .  \nBecause of the potential to apply these high school courses for college credit, they are an attractive option for many students and parents. The appeal of CPPE has many components – they can equate to college credit and thereby save tuition costs or accelerate through prerequisites, they often carry additional weighting for high school GPAs, and are attractive to selective schools’ admissions offices. It would appear that CPPEs would offer students from underserved populations an opportunity to get a ‘head start’ on college while at high school. However, CPPEs have not typically been consistently available to students from disadvantaged groups.1  \nThe reasons for that are not clearly understood. Research suggests that access to CPPE in high schools maybe affected by:  \n- Variation in perception of demand for CPPE opportunities across schools serving different demographic groups  \n- Cost of programs and/or exams to students, although many states offer aid to economically disadvantaged students  \n- Implicit bias2 of districts, schools, and teachers in evaluating aptitude for CPPE, such as determining AP readiness by prior GPA  \n- Lack of familiarity with or confidence to undertake CPPE courses by students ,3 often reflect in  \n1 College Board, 10th Annual AP Report to the Nation, February 2014  \n2 For a brief explanation of ‘implicit bias,’ how it manifests in education, and related resources, see [https://poorvucenter.yale.edu/ImplicitBiasAwareness](https://poorvucenter.yale.edu/ImplicitBiasAwareness)  \n[3](3 Klugman)[ Klugman](3 Klugman), 2013.  \nparents’ prior education4  \nHowever, AP participation overall is growing, and comparable programs from Europe (International Baccalaureate and Cambridge International) are providing even more alternatives for students seeking to earn college credits while staying at their high school.  \nCPPE should offer an opportunity for disadvantaged students to access tuition-free college credit while at high school. Unlike Running Start5 where classes are delivered at a college, CPPE does not require additional transport to the college, purchase of books, and it also enables students to stay on site to access existing support mechanisms and participate in extra-curricular programs such as athletics. In 2018-19, CPPE saved Washington students approximately $1.4 million in tuition fees at community and technical colleges (CTCs)(based on number of CPPE college courses transcribed; 3, 141 courses x 5 credits x $90 per credit.  \nHowever, CPPE availability does not necessarily equate with college credit outcomes, especially across different demographic groups. For the purposes of this report, we will look at the application of CPPE to course credit in Washington state community and technical colleges only (which is a subset of the CPPE course and exam taking behavior) and application for college credit. With that in mind, there are a number offactors that are outside the scope of this research:  \n- Breadth of CPPE access in high schools – availability of CPPE to students depends on whether CPPEis offered in high schools or through online high school options.
