The crew capsule reached an apogee of 347,629 ft AGL / 351,276 ft MSL (106 km AGL / 107 km MSL).
The booster reached an apogee of 347,285 ft AGL / 350,932 ft MSL (106 km AGL / 107 km MSL).

What do AGL and MSL refer to?

Robert Pearlman

Above Ground Level (AGL) is the distance that the spacecraft is above the ground. Mean Sea Level (MSL) is the distance the spacecraft is above sea level.
