Advanced placement (AP) is traditionally used to provide rigorous secondary coursework and provide potential postsecondary credit for secondary education students. One of the criticisms of AP is the difference in access across schools. Concurrent enrollment (CE) offers similar opportunities to AP but has been theorized to provide greater access. This study explores the probability of a high school in Colorado offering any AP or CE courses or a given AP or CE course using multiple years of statewide, school level data. The likelihood of a school offering AP is largely driven by having a sufficiently large population of high achieving students and the affluence of the surrounding community. In contrast, schools are more likely to offer CE if they are less wealthy, distant from urban centers, or charter. By serving schools traditionally unlikely to offer AP, CE expands access to advanced academic opportunities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
