Platinum AP School Ursuline Academy was named to the 2023 AP School Honor Roll as a Platinum Member for the 2023-24 school year. We were awarded the highest combination of awards of all Delaware schools - both the Platinum & Access Awards. The AP School Honor Roll recognizes schools whose AP Programs are delivering results and broadening access for students.

We are one of only four schools in Delaware to receive the Platinum Distinction, and furthermore the only Delaware school to also receive the Platinum & AP Access Award, demonstrating a clear and effective commitment to equitable access to advanced coursework.

Only 886 (6%) schools in the United States & Canada earned the Platinum Award Only 4,570 schools received awards (of 30% eligible) Only 1,770 (39% of Honor Roll recipients) also received the AP Access Award

Schools can earn the Honor Roll recognition annually based on their ability to increase their school’s collegegoing culture, to provide opportunities for students to earn college credit, and maximizing college readiness.

The AP School Honor Roll offers four levels of distinction: Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum.
