AP Capstone

The AP Capstone Diploma program offers an innovative, two-year journey that sets you apart in college admissions. Beginning with AP Seminar, you'll explore complex real-world issues through multiple perspectives, learning to analyze arguments, conduct research, and craft evidence-based presentations. Building on these skills, AP Research empowers you to dive deep into a topic of your choice, designing and executing your own original research project. Together, these courses develop the critical thinking, research, and communication skills essential for college success. Beyond earning potential college credit, AP Capstone transforms you into a confident, independent scholar ready to tackle any academic challenge.
