Dual Enrollment/AP/IB credits
I have a general question about how sororities are assigning a woman's class when it's her first year on campus but she has enough credits to be a sophomore or junior because of AP/IB or dual enrollment credits? Anybody know how this is managed?

They're still considered first-years or freshmen.

Not at all colleges where I've taught. The sororities mostly didn't look to see HOW you got the credits, they just saw that you were a sophomore. The only time that DE/AP/IB came up was when someone was really pitching a certain girl and she would bring up that this girl was brilliant, she had taken all those courses, and shouldn't be considered a real sophomore.

It really depends on when the person can graduate, some of the AP credits might not count toward the desired degree.
|
Usually with the dual enrollment, they have an associates degree when they graduate high school. I did know it affects their ability to get the full tuition scholarships for incoming freshman.
|
It can depends on degree or "bypassing" gen eds via your AP/IB/Dual credits. My brother was able to graduate a semester early due to that.
|
They are still considered first-year students, but I know firsthand that it may hinder being offered a bid depending where they attend uni. Some will view the status of the student from what the university provides them; and it may show the student as a sophomore, junior or even senior depending on how many credits they bring with them.
