Advanced Diploma Programs
Advanced Placement International Diploma
The Advanced Placement International Diploma (APID) (click here to view APID criteria) is a globally recognized certificate for students with an international outlook. The APID challenges a student to display exceptional achievement on AP exams across several disciplines.
Universities worldwide utilize the APID in admissions but it is not a substitute for a high school diploma, but rather provides additional certification of outstanding academic excellence.
To earn an APID, a student attending school within the United States must indicate on at least one AP Exam answer sheet that the results should be sent to a university outside the United States.
