Will colleges and universities award credit for the course? What is the equivalent college-level course?

1,200 colleges and universities have published their credit policies for satisfactory exam scores, and new policies continue to be submitted. AP Computer Science Principles is designed to be equivalent to a first-semester introductory college computing course for nonmajors. Colleges and universities make individual decisions on their credit and placement policies, which vary from institution to institution. Students should contact the college that they are interested in for details.
