The Advanced Placement Program at Selwyn House was started six years ago when the school first offered boys the option to write the Advanced Placement English Literature and Composition exam. That year, eight students wrote the exam. Since then, the program has grown enormously, and this past year, fully one-third of our graduating class wrote at least one Advanced Placement exam and many wrote several exams. Our boys have had a great deal of success on these exams and several have been declared Advanced Placement Scholars, a rare distinction granted to only a small percentage of the over one million students worldwide who write Advanced Placement exams every year.

Advanced Placement (AP) exams offer students the chance to enrich their academic experience in 34 subject areas, providing an engaging way to prepare for the demands of post-secondary education. At Selwyn House, AP exams are particularly useful for students in our Grade 12 program or those looking ahead to Canadian or American four-year college programs. AP results are recognized by universities across Canada, the U.S., and in over 60 countries worldwide. By taking AP courses and exams, students can earn college credits, gain advanced placement, strengthen their university applications, and stand out in the increasingly competitive post-secondary admissions process.
