You can earn advanced placement credit for college if you've completed
college-level courses in high school and passed the CEEB Advanced
Placement Examination with a grade of 3.00 or better, or by successfully
completing an examination administered by selected University departments.
A list is provided below of URI courses that are considered equivalent
to CEEB advanced placement courses. College credit is also available
for courses completed at another institution with a grade of C
or better.
If you've been out of secondary school for more then three years,
you can also earn college credit by completing CLEP general and
subject examinations to get credit for academically measurable
learning acquired in nontraditional ways.
