AP/IB/AICE Scores: 
If you are expecting AP credits: 

Download your AP Score Report (PDF document) from College Board using this link:  https://apscore.collegeboard.org/scores/#/. Reply to this email with the PDF attached and include the Registrar’s Office at ar-recordsaudits@fsu.edu. Please do not send in a screenshot of your scores.  The Registrar’s Office will not post credits based on a screen shot. 

If you are expecting AICE credits: 

For your AICE credits, please have these two pieces of information handy: 

1. Your School Center Number 

2. Your Candidate Number 

If you are not sure of your information, you can ask your high school guidance counselor or check the email address you used while you attended high school. Reply to this email with these two pieces of information and include the Registrar’s Office at ar-recordsaudits@fsu.edu. The credit posting section will try to retrieve your AICE scores using this information.   

If you are expecting IB credits: 

First, make sure that you have properly released your scores to FSU using this website:  https://www.ibo.org/programmes/diploma-programme/assessment-and-exams/requesting-transcripts/. Next, reply to this email and include the Registrar’s Office at ar-recordsaudits@fsu.edu to let us know that you have released your IB credits to FSU.  The credit posting section will try to retrieve your IB scores and will reach out to you if they have any difficulties.   

Departmental Prerequisite Checks:  

Many higher-level science and math courses at FSU require prerequisite coursework.  Departments such as Chemistry, Biology, and Mathematics are currently running prerequisite checks for their courses to ensure that all students enrolled have completed the correct prerequisite coursework. If you have taken a course over the summer as a transient student or have received AP credit for a course that should cover a prerequisite, but you still receive communication that you will be dropped to due non-prerequisites, you will need to reach out to that department directly and provide proof that you have completed the prerequisite course(s). You will need to show them an unofficial transcript or AP/IB score report with the grade to see if they can work with you to remain in your course.  

Fall 2022 Transient Students: 

If you were a transient student over the fall term at another institution, you must request your final transcript sent to FSU for processing. You can request official transcripts from the Registrar’s office at the school you attended this summer. Some offices have this form online, and some require you to fill out the form in person; you will need to check with them to find out which you need to do. You must request a final, official transcript be sent to FSU to the Office of Admissions. Once the FSU Office of Admissions staff receives the final transcript, they will post your final grades to your student account here at FSU.  

Be sure you request a final transcript to ensure it has your final official grade. The transcript must come directly from the other institution for FSU to accept it.
