3 Advanced Placement Mission Statement The College Board s mission is to connect students to college success and opportunity. We are a not-for-profit membership organization committed to excellence and equity in education.

4 Why Advanced Placement? Students who participate in AP courses develop skills and content knowledge that prepare them for success in college and their chosen careers. Students who achieve a 3 or higher on AP Exams are eligible to receive college credit and can begin studies in their college majors sooner. Students who take AP courses are far more likely to graduate from college in four years than their peers who do not take the course.

5 AP from the College Admissions Perspective Eighty-five percent of selective colleges and universities report that a student s AP experience favorably impacts admission decisions.* Colleges rank grades in college-preparatory courses and strength of curriculum as the two top factors in the admission decision. AP courses tell college admission officials that students are challenging themselves and preparing for the rigors they'll encounter in their college careers.

6 North Atlanta s AP Highlights During the school year, sixty-one percent of our AP examinees scored 3 or higher. We met the global average and exceeded the state s average which was 56%. Last school year, we tested 297 students in comparison to 68 students that tested in Last school year, we administered 383 examinations in comparison to the 77 examinations that were administered in We showed gains in seven of the eight content areas that having been tested before.

7 Advanced Placement Course Offerings For the school year, North Atlanta High School will offer the following Advanced Placement Courses: Biology, Calculus AB, Chemistry, Environmental Science, Human Geography, Language and Composition, Literature and Composition, Physics 1, Spanish Language and Culture, Statistics, Studio Art 2D, Studio Art 3D, World History, US History For Advanced Placement virtual opportunities in Atlanta Public Schools, visit domain/7414/ava/ava.html

An additional processing fee is permissible and may be determined by the school. Exams for the exams are $ Students who receive free or reduced lunch are eligible for a fee reduction.

11 Advanced Placement Examinations Testing accommodations must be requested directly and approved by the College Board. Questions concerning the process for requesting accommodations may be directed to the school s SSD Coordinator. It takes approximately seven weeks to process an accommodation request, and the deadline for request is typically in February. Students who earn a qualifying score on an examination may be eligible for college credit.

12 Credit and Placement Opportunities Each college and university has its own policies regarding AP credit and placement.
