Advanced Placement Program

The Advanced Placement (AP) Program allows students to pursue university-level studies
while in high school. It is intended for students who have demonstrated strength and
interest in a particular subject.

AP classes are optional and therefore not required for completion of the
Alberta Education High School diploma. Students writing the AP exams are expected to
pay AP exam fees. Schools are not funded to cover the cost of AP exams.
