Most U.S. universities give credit for scores of 3, 4 or 5. The student’s score is based entirely on either an extended May exam or, in Studio Art, on a portfolio submitted in May. This university credit is for a first-year class, which saves students tuition and gives them more flexibility in their timetables. 6.
