<p>Yeah, somewhat related to what one poster said… about APs and the unofficial transcript. I’m just wondering what all the acronyms mean.</p>
<li><p>What does MSH CTP and MHP mean?</p></li>
<li><p>If the ap subjects are listed in the unofficial transcripts, does that mean they are creditable? I took 7 total and I have 4 in the transcript. </p></li>
<li><p>What does the grade of T mean?</p></li>
</ol>
<p>thanks!</p>

<li><p>I dont know what MSH means, but its the number of credit hours you have taken that has been graded. Therefore, courses taken pass/fail are not included in this. CTP is credits toward programs. This pretty much accumulated the number of credits the class is worth, regardless of grading basis. MHP is michigan honor points(i think), this number is pretty much your grade in the class * your MSH. </p></li>
<li><p>Yes, i believe so. </p></li>
<li><p>Transfer Credit</p></li>
</ol>
<p>msh stands for michigan semester hours</p>
<p>MSH (Michigan Semester Hour) = credits you get for a letter grade
CTP (Credits Toward Program) = amount of credits the course counts. If you repeat a class, this will be zero because you only get the credits once.
MHP (Michigan Honor Points) = Your letter grade multipled by its MSH. Your GPA is MHP/MSH.</p>
<p>Also, on your official transcript if you have transfer credits from another university then it just says:
"Transfer Course Credit Accepted towards Undergraduate Engineering" MSH 0.00 CTP XX.00 MHP 0.00</p>
<p>where XX.00 is the number of credits you transfer. The university you got the credits from will show up on your unofficial transcript but not your official transcript (I heard a story of someone who went to Harvard for a summer class just because she thought it would look good on her transcript only to find out that it doesn't show at all). Even the courses you take and the grade you make in them won't be on the official transcript, assuming you do not go to University of Michigan Dearborn or Flint for transfer courses.</p>
<p>AP exams however are listed on the official and unofficial transcript at the top as "Advanced Placement and Examination Credit."</p>
