I'm thinking about transferring schools and have previously submitted my AP scores to my current college. How do I send them to my new college?
Yes, you can transfer your AP scores to a new college. To do this, you need to request an official score report from the College Board, which is the organization that administers the AP exams. You can make this request online on the College Board website or by calling their customer service. There might be a fee associated with sending the score report.
When making the request, you'll need to provide the College Board with the college's code where you're planning to transfer. This code is typically listed on the college's admissions website or you can ask the admissions office directly. Keep in mind, each college has its own policies regarding which AP scores they accept for credit or placement into more advanced courses. As such, it's a good idea to inquire about your new college's AP credit policy too.
