AP Credit & College Transcripts

On my daughter’s final transcript, there was a section for AP Credits, listed prior to the first semester, itemizing the credits for each - but nothing in the “Grade” column.

Then in the final section of the transcripts, where it broke down the “cumulative points completed” like this.

collegename POINTS COMPLETED [GPA] xxx.0 [x.xx]
TRANSFER POINTS 0.0
SUMMER POINTS xx.0
OTHER POINTS 24.0
CUMULATIVE POINTS COMPLETED 152.0

The AP credits were shown as “other points” towards the total, but did not contribute to the GPA.

FWIW, even the summer courses at the University were counted towards credits and a minor, but the grades appeared only in a comment, where they were not counted towards the transcript GPA.

In short, only courses taken at the college itself counted towards the GPA, honor society or latin honors.
