English 29 (AP Eng Lang/Comp)

<p>I can't find Eng 29 anywhere on the course lists. Can I use it as a humanities credit? If so, would it be as an ALP?</p>

<p>Read what I said in this thread (post #390) about placeholder AP Credits:</p>

<p><a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/duke-university/894881-duke-student-s-taking-questions-26.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/duke-university/894881-duke-student-s-taking-questions-26.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Also, while I’m not 100% sure, I don’t think AP credits counts for any area of knowledge. It’s used to satisfy certain graduation requirements in the general you-get-credit kind of sense if that’s what you elect to do with it. But you most likely will still have to do all of the T-reqs.</p>

<p>Edit: here are the official policies:</p>

<p><a href=“http://trinity.duke.edu/academic-requirements?p=graduation-requirements[/url]”>http://trinity.duke.edu/academic-requirements?p=graduation-requirements&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>AP Credits do not count towards areas of knowledge or modes of inquiry requirements. They are to be used for placement purposes and 2 can count towards the general 34-credit graduation requirement.</p>

<p>Thanks for your help.<br>
I’m actually in Pratt so just thinking about the 5 general requirement classes I have to take.</p>

<p>In that case, you are in the same situation as I was freshmen year. Yes, AP English/Comp or English 29 can be used (as 1 of the 2 allowed humanities APs) and counts as an ALP (or at least it did for my entering year)</p>

<p>ok. thank you.</p>

<p>if you are thinking of medical school, could ap credits still be used to satisfy the year long english requirement?</p>

<p>I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it</p>
