Can I get college credit for advanced courses I've had in high school?

Yes. The State of Ohio has initiated policies which pertain to students taking Advanced Placement (AP) courses. The policy states that students with an AP exam score of 3 or above will be awarded the aligned course(s) and credits for the AP exam area(s) successfully completed. The course and credits received will be applied towards graduation and will satisfy a general education requirement if the course(s) to which the AP area is equivalent fulfill(s) a requirement. If an equivalent course is not available for the AP exam area completed, elective or area credit will be awarded in the appropriate academic discipline and will be applied towards graduation where such elective credit options exist within the academic major. Additional courses or credits may be available when a score of 4 or 5 is obtained.
