The following AP Examinations have been approved for CRC General Education area credit. Where CRC grants credit also for specific CRC courses, those courses are listed (in bold), along with the minimum AP score required. If an examination is listed in more than one area, only one area will be satisfied by the examination (exceptions are listed in the table).
CSU or UC campus, make sure you see a Counselor for more information about how your AP credits are used after transfer.
CRC GE credits are granted per CRC policy. CSU-GE and IGETC credits are granted per CSU and UC policies. All unit values are semester units.
