On the IU website it states that to automatically be admitted into KSB through Standard Admission, one must have 30 credit hours of college coursework by the end of the semester which you apply. Does those 30 credits include AP credits for gen ed requirements?
Yes.
“Completion of a minimum of 30 hours of college coursework. For most students, this will require two semesters on the IU Bloomington campus. We include the credits from any college-level coursework on your transcript.”
AP credits count as college-level coursework.
You just have to make sure you take the required credits in Bloomington.
