BELLEVUE COMMUNITY COLLEGE

AP COURSES CHART

 

Students who engaged in college-level study in high school through the College Board’s Advanced Placement (AP) can obtain credit towards a BCC degree, placement in advanced classes, or both, on the basis of their performance on the AP exam. For placement into an eligible advanced course, students present an original copy of their test results to the Assessment Office. For credit, the student must ask the testing agency to send scores to the Records Office. Posting of AP credits may be requested after successful completion of 10 BCC credits. Students will not be granted credit if the equivalent college course has been taken. If you have questions: English/Math AP questions, contact the Assessment Office, (425) 564-2243; all other courses, contact Jeanne Meek, (425) 564-2222.
