THE COLLEGE BOARD ADVANCED PLACEMENT
The College Board Advanced Placement (AP) Examinations are not offered on the Angelina College campus; however, AP Examinations are evaluated for Angelina College credit. Student grade reports containing scores of 3 or above must be submitted to the testing office along with a written request.
The AP Examinations are offered once a year in May, usually in high schools that offer college-level courses based on AP course descriptions. Each high school that gives the examinations sets its own registration deadline (no later than March) and collects fees.
Reports of AP Examination results are mailed by the College Board in mid-July to institutions listed as recipients by students. (The College Board code for Angelina College is 6025).
The AP Examinations test students over subject matter outlined in the AP course descriptions prepares by the College Board. The descriptions, which include sample questions, are available from some high school counselors and from the Advanced Placement Program, P.O. Box 6670, Princeton, NJ 08541-6670.
If no high school in the vicinity is administering AP Examinations, students interested in taking AP Examinations should write for information, by February 1st, to AP Services, P.O. Box 6671, Princeton, NJ 08541-6671 or by calling (609) 771-7300.
