Students who participate in band, orchestra, athletics, fine arts, or other activities may find it hard to fit every course they want into their daily schedule. UT High School’s online Advanced Placement (AP^®) courses let students add an extra course to get ahead academically or gain flexibility in meeting graduation requirements. Core courses are NCAA approved, and all AP^® courses are audited and approved by The College Board.

Benefits of AP

• Scheduling flexibility to fit AP into a full course load, with an accelerated pace and TEKS-aligned curriculum taught by experienced, Texas-certified teachers
• Build real college-ready skills — time management, study habits, and the confidence to dig into challenging material
• Strengthen college applications — AP coursework signals to admissions officers that a student is ready for rigorous academics; 85% of selective colleges say a student’s AP experience favorably impacts admission decisions
• Arrive at college ahead — 3 out of 4 AP students entering a four-year college start with some AP credit already earned
• Set up for college success — students who score 3 or higher on AP Exams typically see greater academic success and higher graduation rates than their non-AP peers
• Save time and money — AP credit is accepted by nearly all U.S. and Canadian colleges and recognized in 60+ countries worldwide, which can mean fulfilling graduation requirements early or skipping intro-level courses
