The Neuroscience major web pages are under construction and have been changing all the time. However, a few days ago, the page stated specifically that AP was accepted for all of the core requirements and that AP could be used to declare. I am thinking that they might have removed these specifics from the pages while getting approval, or firming up requirements (the major is brand new and was only recently announced). Students should, of course, contact the department for details.
We have been watching these pages because my D26 is interested in the major.
