Taking AP Calculus BC for college credit

You can optionally choose to take AP Calculus BC for college credit. If you want college credit, there are two ways to get it:

1) by taking the AP Calculus BC Exam in May

2) by enrolling in two 1-semester, 4-credit Rio Salado courses:
Fall: MAT221 Calculus w/Analytic Geometry I
Spring: MAT231 Calculus w/Analytic Geometry II

(You can take the AP exam *and* enroll in the Rio Salado classes, choose only one of these options, or do neither and just take the course for high school math credit.)

AP Calculus BC Exam registration is done in late September/October and is done through your College Board account. All students are required to 'join' our class in their College Board account using a join code - we use the online College Board AP Classroom for some mandatory assignments and reviews. I will give the join codes and more about this soon in class. Then later, in September, students who wish to take the AP Calculus BC Exam can sign up for the exam through their College Board account (I will provide more details in class when we are closer to registration time).

Rio Salado registration occurs now, so if you want to take the course for Rio Salado Dual-Enrollment credit, you should start the process soon.
