Advanced Placement (AP)

The Advanced Placement (AP) Program is an accelerated academic program that serves students in grades 9-12 who are recognized as high academic achievers with an exceptional work ethic and desire to learn beyond the regular Ontario curriculum. AP courses are offered in 4 disciplines: English, Canadian and World Studies, Math and Science. In grades 9 and 10, AP-Preparatory courses prepare students for the grades 11 and 12 AP courses and university level College Board AP exams that may earn them credit or advanced standing at most universities in Canada as well as colleges and universities in 21 other countries. The College Board is a not-for-profit organization that develops and administers standardized tests including SATs and AP exams.

AP Capstone™ is a diploma program developed by the College Board, based on two yearlong AP courses: AP Seminar and AP Research. Rather than teaching subject-specific content, these courses develop students’ skills in research, analysis, evidence-based arguments, collaboration, writing, and presenting. Students who complete the two-year program can earn one of two different AP Capstone awards, which are valued by colleges and universities North America and around the world. This program is offered in conjunction with the regular AP Program at Our Lady Queen of the World Catholic Academy. For more information about AP Capstone, please use below LINK.
