AP Classes on transcript but did not receive college credit for them

[2023RNApplicanf]

Hello,

 I'm applying through the NursingCAS for a few programs and am coming across an issue. I️ took four AP classes in high school and then sent them to my college. The AP courses appear on my college transcript, with a credit value next to them and they're listed as transfer credits. However, at the bottom of this section, it has a total of 0 credits totaled, even though there were almost a total of 16 credits listed above. I️ understand this as I️ did not get college credit for these classes, rather they let me skip ahead and fulfill requirements. However, I'm not sure how to enter this into the NursingCAS. I️ don't want this to hold up my application. I️ have attached a picture of what this looks like.

 Thank you!

Hi! I had the same problem a couple years ago and reached out to them and this is what they told me:

1. If they have been mentioned under a particular term then enter the same or else you can just enter them under the FRESHMAN term of your application.

 

2. Course code- N/A, course name- as per the transcripts or TEST CREDITS.

 

3. Subject- TEST CREDIT, credits- same as per your transcripts, Grades- CR.

again this was a couple years ago so it might be different. You might have to reach out to their support team. Good luck with your applications! :)

Is your highschool in a different state than your college/nursing school by any chance? I took AP English in highschool in Florida, and that "counted" when I was attending college in Florida, but when we moved to a different state, I had to take English 101 at the college to meet that requirement. Missouri didn't accept Florida AP highschool credit for that class. (I didn't finish a degree program in Florida prior to moving.) This was also about 20 years ago, but just a thought if it applies to your situation.
