Grade 11 and 12 students at 11 SCDSB high schools have the option to take Advanced Placement (AP) courses.
The courses are designed to cover the Ontario curriculum, while providing accelerated and advanced level programming to prepare students to write American College Board examinations. Students can earn a university credit while still in high school, gain admission to university or both, depending on the university.
Students who attend the schools listed below can select the courses while completing their option sheets for next year. More information about courses is available through high school guidance departments. Each year, schools will continue to be given the opportunity to volunteer to offer advanced placement courses.
AP courses are recognized by 90 per cent of post-secondary institutions in North America and in over 600 universities in 60 other countries around the world.
Advanced Placement exams
Students who are interested in writing an AP exam should contact their guidance counsellor. The exams are usually administered over two weeks in May and fees are due by January prior.
