AP Courses Overview

Students in AP courses might earn college credit and/or advanced placement in college if they perform well on AP Exams and if their college of choice accepts the AP exam for credit. AP exams, given each year in May, are standardized tests designed to measure how well students have mastered the content and skills of a specific AP course.

College credit is not guaranteed but rather is determined by each individual college upon the student’s enrollment in that college. AP courses at Ballard HS prepare students for these exams and offer a rigorous subject study available. Visit the AP College Board website for more information. Also refer to the SPS AP Exams Overview.
