It indicates to colleges and universities that the student has challenged him- or herself in multiple subject areas and has succeeded in a global perspectives course.

The APID is an optional certificate that is available to students attending secondary schools outside the United States and to students attending U.S. high schools who are applying to universities outside the country.
