Question regarding AP credits for Duke

<p>Hi, is it true that if your in trinity, they only accept two AP courses for credit??</p>

<p>According to the Trinity T-Reqs site:</p>

<p>"Advanced Placement, International Placement Credits, and Pre-Matriculation Credits do not count toward the general education requirements (Areas of Knowledge and Modes of Inquiry) and only two of them may be counted at matriculation toward the 34 needed to graduate."</p>

<p>More info can be found here:
AP</a>, IPC, and PMC Credit</p>

<p>The above quote is for people who do not intend to graduate early, if you do intend to graduate in less than four years I think more credits can be applied. Also I think AP credits can be used to place into higher classes but not for credit.</p>

<p>"Additional AP/IPC/PMC credits may be used as acceleration credits in order to graduate early. Acceleration is defined as completing the requirements for the bachelor's degree one or two semesters earlier than the original expected graduation date. Specifically, for students graduating in seven consecutive semesters, the two elective credits and up to two acceleration credits may be included in the 34 credits required for graduation. For students graduating in six consecutive semesters, the two elective credits and up to six acceleration credits may be included in the 34 credits required for graduation."</p>

<p>to make a long story short:
you need 34 credits to graduate, but AP credit can take care of two of them. however, you can still use your other credits to place out of intro classes (which are typically hard to weed out the non-serious kids), but they won't reduce the number of classes you have to take from 32.</p>
