How will we know...

<p>If Columbia gets our AP scores? I want to know before I arrive on campus on the fall... and I forget if I penned the school in for a report in May...</p>

<p>i know i havent sent them. maybe i should…</p>

<p>It’s safest to bring a copy of your AP score reports, make an appointment with your advising dean, and tell him/her which scores you’d like to get credit for. I remember making an appointment with my advising dean at the beginning of freshman year to give him my score reports. I didn’t know that we had a choice in applying scores, so I just assumed he’d put them into the system for me or something. It didn’t occur to me to be more proactive about it till a year later when the pre-professional office told me to actually get the AP credits into the system (they will show up in SSOL under transfer credits). This was a year later, btw. Of course, when I met with my (incompetent) advisor again, he said he didn’t have my AP scores. </p>

<p>I don’t think I ever sent in my AP score reports, but I think it’s best to have them in hand and ask your advisor to immediately apply the credits.</p>

<p>The FYSAAC office (or whatever its called now) is horrendous when it comes to AP scores. I was starting my 2nd semester jr year by the time they showed up on my transcript…after asking since the 2nd week of freshman year.</p>

<p>You really have to hound them for it to actually get done and the sooner you do it the better. Walking in with a copy of your official AP report is the best thing to do, as was said.</p>
