AP exam scores - do you have to include on the CSU app?

Are ALL exam scores REQUIRED to be included on the CSU app? Can you pick and choose which ones you want to report? I don’t see any language either way.

You can self report all AP scores, some or none. There is no requirement to report them. If you want college credit, then the official AP score report will need to be sent to the school where the applicant eventually matriculates.

Thank you. But I know many say the same thing for the UCs - and their official word is that it is ALL or NONE, per an admissions officer I spoke with. Quite different than the Common App. That is why I asked here. The UCs are very adamant about reporting ALL and showing the effort of trying.

Some of the UC’s state specifically they do consider AP scores in their Freshman application review (UCLA/UCB) and some UC’s do not have a preference. I would definitely report 3’s and higher since the CSU’s and UC’s do give credit at that level.

If you have the AP scores, I agree that they should be reported.
