	Advanced Placement Program - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Advanced Placement Program, commonly known as Advanced Placement, or AP, is a United States program that offers high school students the opportunity to receive university credit for their work during high school.
		The not-for-profit College Board, which has run the program since 1955, develops and maintains courses in various subject areas, supports those who teach the courses, supports universities as they define their policies related to AP grades, and develops and coordinates the administration of annual AP examinations.
		The first of these was announced several months later: an Advanced Placement exam in "Italian Language and Culture" is the first to be announced, and will be the first exam to be offered in 2006.
