What is AP?

The AP (Advanced Placement) Program gives students the chance to tackle college-level work while they're still in high school and earn college credit and placement. 

Nearly all colleges and universities in the United States grant credit and placement for qualifying AP scores.

Research consistently shows that AP students are better prepared for college than students who don’t take AP. They’re more likely to enroll and stay in college, do well in their classes, and graduate in four years. 

Visit the College Board AP website to learn more about the program.

Taking AP courses in high school could give you an advantage in college by letting you:

Earn Advanced Placement

Stand Out to Colleges

Save Money and Time

Earn College Credit

 

Sierra offers several Dual Enrollment (Early College) courses through Citrus College, allowing students to take college-level classes while still in high school.

This is a valuable opportunity for students to earn both college and high school credits simultaneously—at no cost—giving them a head start on their college journey.
