Policies
Internships
Hope College students looking for Internship opportunities must understand and follow some set
guidelines.
Review Internship Guidelines
Advanced Placement
Effective May 2005
- Students who wish credit for the AP exam in biology must have their score sent to the Hope College Registrar.
- Students with a score of 5 (the highest score) or 4 receive a total of 4 credits for Biology 240, Cells and Genetics. Many students with AP scores of 5 or 4 may find it advantageous to their future studies in biology to take Biology 240 and use the 4 credits from their AP score as well.
- The biology department regards 4 credits of Biology 240 as satisfactory for credit as a lab science course in general education.
- Students who score less than 4 are not eligible for AP credit.
- The 4 credits of Biology 240 earned for AP scores or 5 or 4 will count toward the 25 credits (B.A. degree) or 36 credits (B.S. degree) required for a major in biology. Students must satisfy all the other requirements for a biology major.
- Students who receive a 4 or 5 on the AP test but also take Biology 240 can not use the 4 hours of AP credit toward either a B.A. or a B.S. degree in biology since those hours will be credited by the courses themselves.
