- The academic highlight of The Academy is that it offers students the opportunity to take college credit courses in English, Western Civilization, World Language, Drama, and Calculus for a total of 30 fully transferrable credits upon graduation. These are not simply AP (Advanced Placement) courses. Small classes ensure from freshmen year that students are prepared to take these courses in their junior and senior year. The 30 credits are offered by Saint Peter's College and The College of Saint Elizabeth.
