AP and IB Recognition Policies at
Regional Universities

There is a list similar to this one at here

Students: This is a partial list. If you have a particular school you are interested in, I'll gladly add your school to this list. IB students note: In almost all cases, you must complete the B2 form in April so your score reports can be officially sent from the IB Office. AP Students, you must indicate your preferred schools on your test in May. Also, IB Students, don't be surprised if AP scores are referred to as "credit by exam" while IB Scores are referred to as "transfer credits". I have no idea why this is, but it's a common college reference I've come across.
