Frequently Asked Questions
I have taken an exam (AP, IB, or CI). How do I submit my scores for credit?
When you complete the exam, the organization (AP, IB or CI) creates an official transcript
for you. Request your transcript from the organization with instructions to send it
directly to CBC. Please note: some institutions may charge a fee.
Send your scores to:
Columbia Basin College
Attn: Student Records
2600 N. 20th Ave, MS-H4
Pasco, WA  99301
Once your scores have been reviewed, you will receive an email notification.
I can't find my transcripts with the organization. Help!
Don't worry! Each institution has a special name for their transcripts.
Advanced Placement:
The official transcript is referred to as the AP Score Reports and is issued by The
College Board. The AP Score Report is sent directly to colleges and universities as
identified by the student to The College Board.
International Baccalaureate:
The International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) provides an official transcript
of grades. The transcript is sent directly to colleges and universities as identified
by the student to IBO.
Cambridge:
Cambridge International provides a results sheet. A student must request that Cambridge
send the results sheet directly to a college or university identified by the student.
What does my score mean?
Credit awarded for exam scores differs by college. The type and amount of credit awarded
is based on the learning outcomes of the course or program and the exam score and
is determined by faculty in the relevant discipline.
In Washington, law requires all public higher education institutions to award as much
possible college credit as is appropriate for the following exam scores:
3 or higher on AP exams
4 or higher on standard-level and higher-level IB exams
E(e) or higher on A- and AS-Level Cambridge International exams
What courses are equivalent to my test score?
Advanced Placement (AP) Test Equivalencies
Cambridge International (CI) Test Equivalencies
International Baccalaureate (IB) Test Equivalencies
Is more credit better?
In general, no! There are many important factors to consider, including fit and mindful
credit accumulation. Your high school curriculum choices should be determined by your
personal, career and educational goals and interests. You should work closely with
your guidance counselor to determine the courses that best fit with your goals. We
want you to maximize your opportunities and avoid unintentionally eliminating college
and career pathways and encountering financial aid issues.
