<p>If you take the AP exams, does that make you a transfer applicant?</p>
<p>Anyone, please?</p>
<p>No, it doesn't. In fact, you can carry university credit forward with you that you earned at the high school level and still be treated as a freshman applicant.</p>
<p>As long as you're a high school senior this year and applying for college, I think you should be a freshman applicant. One piece that I know I'm not familiar with is Running Start, but I think you still are a freshman applicant there, too, because Running Start is getting you high school credit at the same time.</p>

<p>Some schools won't let you apply if you have more than x amount of college credit (not from AP credit). Others will let you apply but not give you any credit. </p>
<p>However, no college that I know of counts you as a transfer student for taking AP courses. I mean, you can't "transfer" from a high school.</p>
