The challenge of conquering these national andinternational standards gives students a tremendous sense of accomplishment.• <strong>Student</strong>s study in greater depth. <strong>Student</strong>s who take AP courses are able to learn a subject in depth, developanalyti<strong>ca</strong>l reasoning skills, and form disciplined study habits that <strong>ca</strong>n contribute to continued success at theuniversity level.• <strong>Student</strong>s may improve their chances of being accepted by the university of their choice. Some universityadmissions personnel view AP experience as one indi<strong>ca</strong>tor of future success at the university level.• <strong>Student</strong>s may be exempted from introductory courses at universities. Course exemption gives students timeto broaden their university experience by exploring additional subject areas, participating in internships, andstudying abroad, for example.• <strong>Student</strong>s may be granted first year standing. <strong>Student</strong>s who earn satisfactory grades on enough AP Exams maybe granted a full year’s credit by their university.• <strong>Student</strong>s are eligible to earn AP Scholar Awards (minimum granted to students who receive grades of 3 or higheron three or more AP Exams).• The Secondary School Guide to the Advanced Placement Program, published by The College Board, also indi<strong>ca</strong>testhat research on the effects of taking Advanced Placement courses and examinations has demonstrated thatwhen AP students reach college, they typi<strong>ca</strong>lly take additional courses in a<strong>ca</strong>demic areas of the AP courses,enroll in more courses than their peers, achieve higher grade-point averages, graduate with double majors, andgo on to graduate school at a rate double that of their non-AP peers.• Universities give additional entrance scholarships for each AP exam with a score of 4 or better. (i.e. U of M givesan additional $250 for a score of 5 and $150 for a score of 4 on each exam.)advanced placement continued on next page12 • kildonan-east collegiate 13/14 kildonan-east collegiate 13/14 • 13
