Rules that apply to every exam

AP credit is recorded as transfer credit and assigned a grade of CR, which is not computed in grade point average and does not replace existing course grades.
Credit earned by examination does not count toward the semester credit hours required for graduation with honors.
The testing agency must send AP score results directly to Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi.
Acceptability of AP credit does not imply it applies to a particular degree program; students should consult an academic advisor.
No more than 45 semester hours of undergraduate work may be transferred from military service, credit by examination, and vocational technical courses combined.
