Cambridge International Exams

Cambridge International Advanced Subsidiary Levels (AS Levels) and Cambridge International Advanced Levels (A Levels) are subject-based qualifications usually taken in the final two years of high school. Cambridge International AS Level is typically a one-year program of study, while Cambridge International A Level typically takes two years. Assessment takes place at the end of each program. Most subjects can be started as a Cambridge International AS Level and extended to a Cambridge International A Level. The syllabi are international in outlook but retain local relevance. They have been created specifically for an international student body with content to suit a wide variety of schools and avoid cultural bias. The contexts or examples used in syllabi and exam question papers are culturally sensitive in an international context. Offered since 1951, these qualifications are administered by Cambridge Assessment International Education, a part of the University of Cambridge, United Kingdom. Eastern Kentucky University accepts and awards credit for Cambridge International programs.
