CIT STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS
Advanced Placement (AP) Credit: The College Board Advanced Placement (AP) Program scores may not arrive until July. These scores must be submitted by the College Board directly to Purdue University.
International Baccalaureate (IB) Credit: You may submit IB credit as well. See http://www.iss.purdue.edu/admission/ugrad/ib.cfm for more information.
Concurrent (Dual) Credit: A concurrent credit course is a single course for which students earn credit from their high school and from the college or university that administers the course. To receive credit for concurrent credit courses, a student must submit an official transcript from the college or university that administers the course. Concurrent credit courses listed on a high school transcript may be used to satisfy high school course expectations for admission consideration but are not an authoritative source for Purdue transfer credit. Students with such coursework should provide official high school and college transcripts to the Office of Admissions.
