1. Exam registration for 2023 exams requires two steps: activation of your exam on the College Board MyAP site AND submission of exam fees. (See FAQs for more information on the MyAP activation process.)
Students enrolled in Fall Semester or Yearlong AP® Courses will have the opportunity to activate their AP® Exams and submit fees between August 29 and November 1, 2022 (Penalty fees of $40 per exam apply between November 16, 2022 and March 1, 2023)*
*Students enrolled in Spring AP® Courses will have the opportunity to activate their AP® Exams and submit fees between January 1 and March 1, 2023. (No late registration will be possible for the Spring.) Students enrolled in Spring semester AP® Courses may submit payment for these exams in advance, but it is not recommended since there are no refunds and they cannot complete the activation step until the course commences.
College Board profiles are the same accounts used to order SAT® exams, or to collect prior year PSAT/NMSQT® or AP® Exam scores. Do not create a new account if you already have one (see FAQs for more information.)
Current school board policy states that you must take the AP exam in order to earn the additional 5 points on the final student grade point average.
2. The cost of each AP® Exam is $97 each. (Capstone exams are $145)
Payment for exams may be done via credit card or debit card, OR by mailing in a check or money order. There will be an online payment fee of 3.1% for payments submitted by credit or debit card. Directions for payment can be found at the end of the online registration form and in your e-mail confirmation which will be sent to the parent email address you provide on the registration form.
Late registration for Fall will be possible with a penalty fee of $40 per exam. No orders will be accepted after March 1, 2023.
