Entrance Examinations
All applicants are required to submit test scores from either
the SAT I or the ACT. These entrance examinations should
be taken late in the junior and/or early in the senior year.
In addition to using the results to evaluate applicants for
admission, the scores are used in course selection and placement.
Advanced
Placement - Students who have participated in the Advanced
Placement Program may be eligible for transfer credit or advanced
placement at Flagler College. The College reviews and evaluates
AP courses on an individual basis in the context of a student's
proposed area of study. The amount of credit and placement are
subject to approval by the appropriate academic department. Course
credit is generally granted for each AP examination passed with
a score of 4 or 5 in courses comparable to Flagler courses and
appropriate to the degree program.
For students earning a 4 or 5 on the "Language
and Composition" AP examination, Flagler College will award
credit for 101 upon consultation with the Department Chair for
English; after that consultation, students will be enrolled in
ENG 191 (and must still take the second part of a composition
series), ENG 102 or ENG 192 (in the spring semester of the first
year). For students earning a 4 or 5 on the "Language and
Literature" AP examination, Flagler College will award 3
credits of HUM 199 toward their General Education humanities requirements.
Students must submit official score reports of the AP exminations.
The Registrar's Office will review the exam results, as well as
the grades received for the AP courses, and will consult with
the academic departmends involved. Credit is awarded at the discretion
of the College, and students should not assume that credit will
be awarded automatically. Students should consult with the Admissions
Office to determine level of placement of the amount of credit
to be granted for AP.
