Do you input AP classes in "Coursework" from high school?

I was wondering if you have to include AP credits from high school even though they were not taken at a college. I'm asking because it shows on my unofficial transcript online as a series of classes all together with "P" grades

No I don't believe so.

If they appear on your college transcript then put them in as they appear on the transcript and as if they were taken during the first semester. There is a special designation for AP courses so mark them as that.

You definitely include them, exactly as they show on your college transcript.

So if I went to UCF for undergrad, would I choose that as my designated college and then input them as AP courses even though I took them in high school?

I'm just confused as to which college to choose from because I did not take it at a college. Do I choose my primary undergrad college or my CC college?

 

[stomatology]

Which one has them listed on the transcript? If they both have the courses listed, I would probably put them for the first term of the school you attended first.

Are they on the transcript from your primary school? If so, I'd list them how they show there.

woop, sorry for the misinformation.

 

[Glimmer1991]

I listed mine as they were shown on my primary undergrad's transcript, so I had to do the same thing last year.

Yes I'm looking at the unofficial transcript of my primary school and it states that they are "CREDIT BY EXAM- ADV PLACEMENT" so you guys are right I will put these under the first semester of my primary school. Thank you

woop, sorry for the misinformation.

It's ok!! Thanks for trying to help

Good thing Glimmer and Stomatology's here to clean up my mess :s. I'd better add in my AP's too I guess! SORRY once again!!

@Glimmer1991 @stomatology

Also another random question... for disadvantaged status-- would I consider myself educationally disadvantaged because both my parents didn't go to college? However, they earn average salaries and make enough money to put me through college... so should I just check "no"

 

[stomatology]

I think whether you choose to designate yourself as disadvantaged is up to you and I don't think it's right for me to tell you what to do in that regard. Do what you're comfortable with.

For AP courses, do we list them as "undergraduate" in the "course level" section? Also, on my transcript, it lists my AP courses as T for "transfer." But the application doesn't give us that option when we input our grades. In that case, should we put down "CR - credit"? I'm just concerned since it doesn't EXACTLY match my transcript.

 

[dbd]

Yeah in my transcript it lists them as "AP" for the grade lol. I just did CR for each of them as well. Glimmer or Stoma, am I doing something wrong again? :s

Yes, Undergraduate and CR - credit.

 

[stomatology]

I also did CR for the AP grades. 🙂

I've been entering my coursework for a couple of hours and I'm not even done (I have a TON of credits), but I have a huge headache. The only thing that is enjoyable is that I've been catching up on Game of Thrones while entering coursework...it takes longer this way, but at least it's bearable. And there's something for me to do during the overly gross parts. Lol

Will schools accept AP credit as long as there is some notation on the transcript? The school I go to said they don't individually list each AP course taken with the corresponding credits given for it. What I see on my unofficial transcript is "Advanced Placement 20.0 credits" lumped all together under a "Transfer Credit" section (community college credit is also under this section but listed separately on another line). The 2 classes I really need from those APs are Physics (Mechanics semester equivalent) and Psychology. Does anyone have experience with their undergraduate school not itemizing each class individually and still got it accepted for prereqs? @stomatology @sjv
