Advanced Placement Credit

Hartwick College offers advanced placement credit for most scores of three or better on the Advanced Placement Exams of the College Board. Several Advanced Placement tests have been designated by academic programs as equivalent to one or more Hartwick courses. If an Advanced Placement test is not designated equivalent to a Hartwick course or courses, credits toward the general education curriculum or elective credit may still be offered. AP transcripts must be submitted to the Office of the Registrar so that credit may be awarded.
