Advanced Placement Program® Since 1955 the College Board’s Advanced Placement program has offered students worldwide an opportunity to take college-level courses while still in high school. Students who are successful in their examinations each May can then use their scores to stand out in college admissions, earn college credits, and/or skip introductory classes at university. In addition to the content-specific AP offerings, KIS is proud to offer the AP Capstone™ program, a skills-based curriculum designed to prepare students for college-level writing and research. The program is composed of the G11 Seminar course and the G12 Research course, and successful completion of these courses plus four additional AP courses leads to the prestigious AP Capstone Diploma™. We are very proud to be the only school on Jeju to offer our students the opportunity to achieve this respected academic credential which is available to students in 650 schools in the US as well as a few select schools internationally.
