Advanced Placement (AP) examinations
A student receiving a score of 4 or 5 on the Latin examination is exempt from LAT 30 and is considered to have fulfilled the College's general education language requirement. AP credits in Latin do not apply to the language-in-context general education requirement.
The College language requirement may also be met by achieving a score of 680 on the CEEB/SAT II Latin Test, or a satisfactory placement score on the Drew Latin placement examination.
