Advanced Placement

Students may receive academic credit, up to a total of 30 credit hours, for successful completion of Advanced Placement (AP) courses taken in high school. Transfer credit equivalencies are listed on www.ut.edu/admissions/advancedplacementcredit/.

Students who are native speakers of a language other than English, as indicated on the admissions application, or whose secondary education was conducted in a language other than English may receive credit for AP literature courses, but cannot receive AP credit for any language course at a level they would not be eligible to take at UT according to departmental prerequisites. Final assessment of foreign-language credit will be determined by the Department of Languages and Linguistics after the student’s arrival on campus.
