Students who complete an AP exam must send an original College Grade Report from AP to Truman State University (the CEEB code is 6483).  A “T” (test) grade will be awarded for AP credit.  This grade will not affect the student's grade point average but will count toward total hours and fulfill degree requirements.

The following equivalencies are effective for students entering Truman in Fall 2006 or after.  Equivalencies for future students are subject to change without notice as a result of changes in AP test content and Truman course/curriculum changes.  A brochure with this information is also available in .pdf form by clicking here.
