| The Humanities and Sciences Academy
offers Advanced Placement courses in all disciplines for which the College
Board provides Advanced Placement examinations. The student may select
those courses that best meet his or her goals and the requirements of the
college or university of his or her choice. In addition to presenting a
rigorous course of study, an Advanced Placement course will follow the College
Board guidelines to prepare students to successfully take the college Board
Advanced Placement exam in that subject area. A successful score on the
exam can award the student with up to five college credits in that subject.
In addition to offering Advanced Placement courses, the Academy offers
many courses, which include preparation for the CLEP (College-Level Examination
Program) examinations. The College-Level Examination Program is designed
for students who wish to bypass certain college courses and earn credit
by passing an examination. Similarly, in many courses, students have the
opportunity to prepare for the SAT I (Scholastic Aptitude Test I), the
various SAT II’s (Scholastic Aptitude Subject Tests), and the ACT
(American College Testing) test.
