Nuance of receiving AP and Dual Credit at IU

I have a situation where I’m going to be taking the AP Environmental Science test at the end of this semester. Depending on how I do may qualify me for 3 credits in a SPEA course, according to IU’s website. That said, I’m enrolled for dual credit through Ball State in the class, and transferring that credit, on paper, should earn me the 3 credit hour course GEOG-G 208. This is, at first glance, receiving credit for two classes after taking only one. Is that legitimate, or would IU only allow me to receive credit for one of the two? I’m not sure which would be smarter to take when considering the GenEd rules.

I would email the admissions office. It will probably take several days at least for them to respond, but they should be able to get you an answer.

I did this with AP Spanish. Took it dual credit, which transferred & received AP credit.
