I took AP Courses in HS; How do I get College Credit for these Courses?

I don’t understand what the rush is. Why are you pushing yourself, to complete so many units, and getting AP credit, when the timeline doesn’t matter to anyone?

@rissarae1 You do understand that there’s no timeline, correct? The age when you graduate from college does not matter to the colleges, nor to corporate America.

You are a first generation correct? So your parents have not gone through the educational system in the US correct? Please take the advice of the people here online who have gone through the system. I was first generation as well. Pushing all those classes together, in the next six months with labs and with group requirements, is really not a good idea because your grades may tank, and then your admission to ASU may be rescinded.
Do you want to put your admission at risk with ASU?

I remember my AP classes in high school and I remember the teachers saying “OK we’re on a deadline; the tests are in May. Make sure you’ve paid your fees.”

The College Board expects students/parents to pay fees, to set up a seat for each test. For students who can’t afford to pay for the tests, they have waivers, but that is done in advance.

When my kids went through this, I had to pay for each of the tests that they took. It adds up and is expensive. The College Board makes money. This is a financial thing.

It’s hard for me to believe that you didn’t hear, from any AP teacher, that the tests’ results were required for college credit, or, that you didn’t hear the student buzz around you, at either school, that you had to make your payment and take the tests.

It is equally hard for me to believe that the College Board is going to give you a pass on this because you “weren’t informed”.

There is no timeline, nor age requirement for you to finish college. As a first generation former student, I can tell you, there is no requirement, nor age limit, to finish college. There are 80 year-olds getting their degrees at universities. I’m not telling you that you have to be 80 to get a degree, but people do get their degrees at any time or age.
