Chabot College recognizes the following courses and credits for the following Advanced Placement (AP) Exam scores. These will apply to the completion of GE requirements for AA/AS Degrees, CSU General Breadth Certification and IGETC Certification and Chabot prerequisite requirements. Official copies of the AP Exam scores must be on file with Chabot College and an evaluation requested with the Office of Admissions & Records.
Because each college and university evaluates AP scores differently, students should contact the institution to which they are transferring regarding AP scores meeting specific requirements. For example, some AP scores may meet university GE requirements, but not requirements for specific majors. See a Chabot counselor for assistance.
Students will not receive credit for a course if they have already been granted credit for that course using AP examination results. Transfer insitutions may not grant credit for taking a course that was awarded AP examination credit.
