Long High School encourages all students to challenge themselves every year. The Advanced Placement Program (AP) offers students the opportunity to take college-level courses and exams in high school and earn college credit, advanced placement, or both at many colleges and universities in the U.S. and around the world. By earning college credit in high school and skipping introductory courses in college, your child can save time and money as they work toward a college degree.

Reasons to take Advanced Placement and College Credit Courses

“AP opens the doors for students to show…that they can be competitive.”

“When colleges review transcripts and see AP courses…they know that students have challenged themselves. They know that they are really pushing themselves.”

“Many students may be the 1st ones in their family to graduate from high school and have the hopes and dreams of attending college.”

“AP courses level the playing field, and you can see it in the students. They recognize it and think ‘I can do this work as long as I’m willing to commit myself to work and work hard.'”
