College Board’s AP Computer Science Female Diversity
Award recognizes schools that are closing the gender gap
and engaging more female students in computer science
coursework in AP Computer Science Principles (AP CSP)
and AP Computer Science A (AP CSA). Specifically, College
Board is honoring schools who reached 50% or higher
female representation in either of the two AP computer
science courses in 2018, or whose percentage of the female
examinees met or exceeded that of the school's female
population in 2018. Out of more than 18,000 secondary
schools worldwide that offer AP courses, only 685 have
achieved this important result.
