Credit for AP and IB Exams

In addition to earning college credit through the programs Delaware Tech offers for high school students, students may also earn credit for certain courses through Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate exams.

These could be introductory courses required for the academic program or core courses the College requires all students to take.

In order to obtain Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate credit, the student must submit official test scores to the Admissions Office for evaluation.
