Duke generally looks for AP scores of 4 or 5 for credit. Mostly 5s required. Up to 4 courses worth of AP credit possible. At selective schools the stated minimum and the practical expectation can differ — aim for a 5 even where a 4 technically earns credit.
Get Duke's exact policy (it varies by subject)
Selective schools often restrict AP credit by department (pre-med and intro-major courses especially), and policies update yearly — so check the authoritative source:
- Official lookup: College Board's AP Credit Policy Search — search "Duke" for the exact credit and placement per subject and score.
- The final word: Duke's own registrar or department pages (search "Duke AP credit policy").
