Advanced Placement Credit

If you have taken AP exams and supplied all required information on your AP registration answer sheet, your AP scores will be sent from the testing company to our Registrar's office in July. You will then be contacted by the College of Engineering explaining your options, if any, for taking AP credits.

It is your responsibility to provide the testing company with full information, such as personal identification, Villanova's college code, etc. so that the AP credit administration process can be accomplished efficiently.

If you have not been contacted by our office regarding AP credits by the end of July, please contact Mrs. Nancy O'Connor at 610 519-4943.

• For more information and required scores for credit, view the Advanced Placement Credit Policy.
• Read our study about the success in fall semester Math courses for recent freshman students accepting AP credit for introductory Math courses. This information could assist you in making your decision about accepting AP credit, if qualified.
• With no exceptions, all AP score reports must be received in the College Office by the end of the student's freshman year.

For easy processing of your AP Credit, put Villanova's School Code 2959 on your answer sheet at testing time
The most efficient way for Villanova to receive your AP test scores is for you to put Villanova School Code 2959 on your answer sheet when you take the AP test.  This way, we will receive your scores electronically and you will not have to pay the testing service to have them sent to us by mail. If you wait to see your scores before sending them to Villanova, there may not be time to accommodate Calculus and Chemistry changes in your Fall schedule.

If you are not sure if you requested that Villanova receive your AP test scores, please contact the testing service to verify and/or request to have your scores mailed to us (for a fee). On your AP grade report which you received or will receive in the mail, does Villanova University appear as a score recipient? If you took AP tests and Villanova is not listed, we will not receive your scores unless you request it through the AP Services web site.

Pre-Matriculated Credit

College-level work completed prior to high school graduation may be awarded transfer credits upon receipt of the following:

1. an official letter from the high school principal, guidance counselor or other educational professional describing the college-level program of study;
2. an official letter from the college/university stating that the courses were taught by members of the regular faculty, open to enrollment by and graded in competition with regularly matriculated undergraduates at the college, and a regular part of the normal curriculum published in the college catalog; and
3. an official, seal-bearing transcript from the college/university showing a grade of C or better.

Courses taught at the high school and courses taught in a distance learning format will not be accepted.

Each supporting document is to be sent to the Dean of Engineering.

International Baccalaureate Credit

If you have taken International Baccalaureate Higher Level (IB) exams and Villanova has received your official scores, you may receive Villanova credit.  Contact Mrs. Nancy O'Connor at 610 519-4943 to verify that your official score report has been received and processed.
