The two components of the program are AP courses and AP exams. Seton does not offer AP courses; however, students have the opportunity to take AP exams with independent study encouraged. AP exams are scored on a 5-point scale, and a score of 3 or higher corresponds to a passing grade in a comparable college course. Many colleges and universities will grant college credit and/or advanced placement for successful AP exam scores (consult individual colleges for their policies) . Additionally, earning college credit or advanced placement can allow students more flexibility to double major, study abroad, or graduate early. Participating in the AP Program can also help students stand out in the college admissions process.
