College Entrance Examination Board (CEEB) /  Advanced Placement (AP) Program

 

Many high schools conduct courses as part of the national CEEB Advanced Placement (AP) Program.  After the specified high school courses are completed, a student may participate in the national examinations for college credit.  Creighton University awards college credit through the CEEB program in the following areas.  The score needed to earn credit is determined by the academic department at Creighton in consultation with the Committee on Academic Policy, Discipline, and Appeals.  Examinations accepted for credit, minimum score guidelines, and hours/courses awarded are subject to change at any time without notice.

These guidelines are current as of May, 2005.
