Prototype Russian AP Test

[Johnson Emily]

Several weeks ago, I sent an inquiry to the list asking whether other institutions were granting credit for the Prototype Russian AP test.  In response to several requests, I wanted to report the results.  I received only one response: Sibelan Forrester forwarded the following note regarding Swarthmore:

"We haven't had any students arrive with a score on the Prototype Russian AP, but if we did we'd offer them whatever the deal is with the other languages in our department: for a 4 or 5, 1 credit AFTER they take another course in the section."

I can now also report that this year my own institution, the University of Oklahoma, will begin offering up to three semesters of credit to students who score well (3 or above) on the exam.   We have had two requests from students for credit in recent years and wanted to come up with a fair system for handling them.  

Sincerely, Emily
