On October 4, 2016, the 91AV signed an agreement with Sanford High School that will allow Sanford High students to earn college transfer credit at 91AV in the College of Arts and Sciences (CAS). The credits may be earned by receiving qualifying scores on Advanced Placement exams or by successfully completing eligible courses at York County Community College and/or the University of Southern Maine.

The agreement was signed by Jeanne Hey, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, and Marianne Sylvain, Sanford High School principal.

Students admitted to 91AV through this agreement may major in any program offered by the College of Arts and Sciences, including subjects in the humanities, arts, social sciences, education, business, natural sciences and others.
