Advanced Placement (AP) and International Baccalaureate (IB) Course Credit

Students who clearly demonstrate the capacity for upper-level course work as determined by results of College Board Advanced Placement examinations, departmental examinations at Tufts, the International Baccalaureate examinations, or any other evidence favorably reviewed by the appropriate department, will ordinarily be granted credit and advanced standing at the discretion of the department concerned. For Advanced Placement tests, Tufts usually accepts a score of four or five for credit on most AP tests, and often awards placement into a higher-level course. Information on Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate can be found in the Tufts Bulletin.
