We are one of the few schools in Europe to offer a range of IB and AP courses; because of this, our graduates attend many of the best universities around the world.
ASP is one of the founding schools of the International Baccalaureate (IB) program and has been offering it for more than 30 years. The small IB classes at ASP guarantee the highest degree of individual attention for our students.
We offer many Advanced Placement (AP) courses and 30 International Baccalaureate (IB) classes. Approximately one-third of our seniors are candidates for the IB Diploma each year, and over 90% participate in either the AP or IB program while at ASP.
Our students can choose to complete a full International Baccalaureate program, take a variety of American Advanced Placement exams, take a combination of AP and IB courses, or take standard college preparatory classes. Our Guidance Counselors work with students from their first day at ASP to navigate the rich variety of options and prepare for the academic program best suited to their needs and academic goals.
Our Grade 9 and 10 programs are designed to prepare students for the academic choices that students are presented with in Grades 11 and 12. Counselors work with students and families at each step of the process to ensure that students can take full advantage of their time at ASP. All academic paths at ASP lead to an American High School diploma and may lead to an IB diploma or AP Scholar designation if requirements of these programs are met.
Our students consistently outperform world averages in the Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate programs.
ASP is one of the founding schools of the International Baccalaureate program and one of the few schools in Europe to offer a range of IB and AP courses. Because of this, our graduates attend many of the best universities around the world. Our students' scores consistently exceed worldwide grave-level norms.
The AP program at ASP gives students the opportunity to take college-level courses and exams while they are at our school. Successful completion of AP courses provides students with the opportunity to earn credit and/or advanced placement for college or university.
Many ASP graduates have earned anywhere from one college credit hour to full second year standing, depending on the number of AP exams taken and the scores earned. Please note that students not enrolled in AP courses but who may be engaged in self-study are able to order exams in any AP subject. AP exam grading is based on a scale of 1–5, with 5 being the highest mark.

Universities around the world welcome IB Diploma students and recognize how the program helps prepare students for university.
