Does self-studying an AP course count in college apps?

<p>I am a senior and I am thinking about self-study AP Psychology since I am really interested in it more than any AP subject. Will colleges see on my college app that I am currently self-studying this course and will count it as an AP course I am taking?(such as it will add to the number of APs I am taking/took).</p>

<p>Please help!
Thanks!</p>

<p>I don’t think they will if you haven’t taken the test or have a set time in your school day when you study it (independent study). There’s nothing wrong with doing it for the credit/because it is interesting but if you haven’t done it yet (nor do you know how well you will do) then it is hardly something to brag about.</p>

<p>Not unless you list it with your senior-year courses, and I wouldn’t do that unless your high school is letting you get credit for it.</p>
