Step One – Submit AP/IB/Transfer Credit
Advanced Placement (AP) Credit
Contact College Board to send your scores to Syracuse University. Our college code is 2823.
Refer to the AP Examination Table for score requirements and list of SU equivalent courses.
You should have indicated any potential AP credit via the Qualtrics Survey you completed. If you did not report your AP scores on the Qualtrics Survey please send this information to your academic adviser or nhadvise@syr.edu.
YOU SHOULD NOT TAKE ANY COURSES FOR WHICH YOU EARN AP CREDIT.
If you have not received your AP scores yet assume that you will receive the qualifying score and will earn AP credit. If it turns out that your score is lower, you can adjust your schedule when you arrive on campus and, if necessary, add the course for which AP credit was not earned.
Remember: Do not select a course for which you may already have credit. Email us at nhadvise@syr.edu if you have any questions.
International Baccalaureate (IB) Credit
Contact IB to have your transcript sent to nhadvise@syr.edu.
Refer to the IB Credit Table for score requirements and list of SU equivalent courses.
Remember: Do not select a course for which you may already have credit. Email us at nhadvise@syr.edu if you have any questions.
Transfer Credit
If you have taken a course at another college or university, you may be able to transfer the credit to Syracuse if the course meets the following criteria:
- From an accredited institution.
- Earned a grade of C or higher.
- It must be roughly equivalent to a course offered at Syracuse University and apply toward your degree requirements (SU to determine).
- Your adviser may email you requesting a syllabus for the course(s).
- You cannot transfer more than 12 credits of Newhouse communications coursework.
Send copies of syllabi for any Newhouse and/or Foreign Language courses to your academic adviser or nhadvise@syr.edu for review.
Contact the college/university where the class was taken to have an official transcript sent to the Newhouse Advising Office.
Electronic transcripts may be emailed to nhadvise@syr.edu.
We will only accept transcripts that come through a verifiable service, like Parchment. Please select the option that will allow you to send to another recipient- this is located under the search bar.

Project Advance and SUMMER 2022 Course Work at Syracuse University
Project Advance credit is Syracuse University credit. These courses already appear on your Syracuse University transcript. Therefore, as long as you have passed the Project Advance course, you will receive credit for it and should not register for the same course again.
If you are taking courses at SU this summer and receive a passing grade in said classes, you should not register for the same course again as you can only receive credit for a course once.
Remember: Do not select a course for which you may already have credit. Email us at nhadvise@syr.edu if you have any questions.
