Pace University accepts AP or IB credits from high schools, as well as college-credit coursework earned before acceptance and enrollment at Pace University. Incoming first year students should have their qualifying AP, IB, or college-credit coursework submitted to Pace at least two weeks before attending orientation. Failure to do so may impact course registration for the upcoming semester.
 
Please note: Pace University participates with several electronic transcripts networks: Credentials, Parchment Exchange, National Student Clearing House, and eSCRIP-SAFE. Whenever possible, Pace prefers to receive transcripts electronically. Confirm with the prior institution to determine if they participate in any of these networks. If a send-to e-mail address is required, please use AppProcessing@pace.edu.
