<p>Hello everyone!</p>
<p>I was taking a look at the CSUMentor website, and I read this: </p>
<p>"Please arrange to have official results for your Advanced Placement exams sent directly to the CSU campus admission office."</p>
<p>Does this mean that students applying for CSUs need to send in their AP scores along with their SAT/ACT scores? On the day of the AP exams, I had previously ordered to have my scores sent to colleges outside of CSU.</p>
<p>I don’t believe they actually need to see your official scores until you’re admitted. That’s the case at most schools . . . but the CSU’s could be different.</p>
<p>Only a few schools that use AP scores for admission. I am not sure if this is one of them.</p>
<p>As far as I’m aware, the College Board DOES NOT send Official AP scores to admissions offices, but rather sends them to a college’s registrar’s office. Some registrar’s offices probably hold scores waiting for a student to matriculate; they may never make it to Admissions. Maybe it’s different at CSU. I would call the College Board and find out.</p>
<p>Was this on a page for students who matriculate and want credit or placement for AP scores? Nearly all CSUs admit just using the eligibility index computed from GPA and SAT CR+M or ACT superscore, so AP scores are irrelevant for admission. The two exceptions are CPSLO and Maritime, but they do not use AP scores either for frosh admissions:

<p>@ucbalumnus Does this mean that I should send my AP scores to Cal Poly SLO if I want to get credit for AP scores? Can I do that after we get our acceptance letters?</p>
<p>Unless your AP scores are needed for a-g requirements, you should be fine sending them after you decide to attend, since they are not otherwise used for admission.</p>
<p>My D sent her AP scores to schools right after she finished her applications, including SLO. It doesn’t really matter when you send them but it does make one less thing that ends up on the to do list later.</p>
