• A maximum of 24 AP credits may be applied toward a TVCC certificate.
• A maximum of 45 AP credits may be applied toward a TVCC degree.
• AP credit is awarded as recommended by the American Council of Education (ACE) guidelines.
• AP credit is not graded and will not affect the student's GPA.
• A student must earn credit at TVCC before AP credit will be awarded.
