Credits

<p>I opened the academic planning worksheet on Penn InTouch and noticed that I have some credits coming in from AP exams. What do these credits go toward in terms of general education requirements--electives? Also, one of the courses I am taking does not fulfill any of the sectors or foundational approaches. Does that mean it is counted as an elective credit?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Only from from each sector can be satisfied by AP Credits, I think. At least it’s that way for Wharton. For example, if you got credit for both AP Bio and AP Chem like I did, one credit fulfilled Science & Technology, while the other satisfied an elective. If you meet with your counselor, he/she will go through the spreadsheet with you and place the AP credits where they belong. Hope this helps!</p>

<p>In the college, AP credits cannot satisfy sector or foundational approach requirements.</p>
