<p>tisch has some weird issues with ap credit and early graduation. somebody asked about it on the live journal group and the reply was …</p>
<p>"okay the AP thing: I only had 8 which is no big deal, however if you come in with alot its something to talk to your advisor about so you can plan for it. They give you until May of your freshman year to decide whether or not to accept credit for all your AP’s, so you’ve got time to do that kind of planning.</p>
<p>Honestly, it’s likely not to be a huge deal unless you go in with like, 24 credits or something insane like that. But then you can always get around the graduating early thing by minoring or double majoring, or, the old fashioned way, just don’t take one required class until your last semester of your senior year. The AP’s only work against you by moving you more quickly towards having fulfilled all your requirements. So hold out and don’t take that last required theatre studies course until you’re ready too and you should be fine.</p>
<p>I also have to point out that it’s a myth that they make you graduate early. They’ll never make you graduate early. They’ll just cut off your financial aid as soon as you’re technically able to graduate. Which is essentially the same thing unless you’re fabulously wealthy, but there is a technical difference."</p>
