Early vs Regular Decision

EARLY DECISION Usually a BINDING decision For those students who will apply to a college that is

their FIRST choice Suggested by the name most deadlines for early

decision are EARLYmdashmany colleges between the end of October to the beginning of December

Decisions by colleges are normally made by December

EARLY ACTION Gives the opportunity for students who want to apply

early but do not want the commitment NOT BINDING Good for students who might want to factor in all

financial aid packages before making a decision Be careful not all colleges offer early action

REGULAR DECISION Deadlines are normally later than early decision Some colleges wait until April to inform students of a

decision Many colleges work on rolling admission which

means that students can apply regular decision anytime during hisher senior year

Stand Out in College Admissions By making the decision to take an AP course yoursquore letting colleges and universities know that you have what it takes to succeed in an undergraduate environment AP courses signal to admissions officers that yoursquove undertaken the most rigorous classes your high school has to offer They see that yoursquove challenged yourself with college-level course work and expectations and have refined your skills to meet these expec-tations AP courses offer admissions officers a consistent measure of course rigor across high schools districts states and countries mdash because all AP teachers have to provide a curriculum that meets college standards So when admissions officers see ldquoAPrdquo on your transcript they have a good understanding of what you experienced in a particu-lar class and how well it prepared you for the increased challenges of college Prepare to Succeed in College AP Courses can help you acquire the skills and habits yoursquoll need to be successful in college Yoursquoll improve your writing skills sharpen your problem-solving abilities and develop time-management skills discipline and study habits With many AP courses to choose from at BHS yoursquoll be able to explore your interests and discover new passions In AP classes yoursquoll study fascinating topics and ideas that just might become the foundation of your future college major or career Earn College Credits As college costs grow each year the prospect of continuing education becomes less and less of a reality for many high school students By making it through an AP course and scoring successfully on the related AP Exam you can save on college ex-penses Currently more than 90 percent of colleges and universities across the country offer college credit advanced placement or both for qualifying AP Exam scores These credits can potentially save students and their families thousands of dollars in college tuition fees and textbook costs which can transform what once seemed unaf-fordable into something within reach Skip Introductory Classes If you know what you want to major in at college taking an AP course related to that major and earning a qualifying score on the AP exam can help you gain advanced placement out of introductory courses This means that you can possibly place out of crowded required courses and move directly into upper-level classes where you can focus on work that interests you most Even if you take an AP exam unrelated to your major mdash or if yoursquore not sure what you want to major in mdash AP courses can often help you place out of your collegesrsquo general education requirements With this additional time on your class schedule you can pursue a second major or minor take exciting electives or follow additional inter-ests in new ways Ask your school counselor about whether AP classes are right for you
