How do I place an AP® exam order?
Step 1: Activate Exam – Students must activate their exams on The College Board MyAP site by JOINing their AP® Class on the MyAP Site at https://myap.collegeboard.org To access the site, create or use a College Board Profile. You will then ‘Join’ your classes by entering a Join Code (Access Code) that will link you to your specific teacher and subject. November 1 is the deadline to activate your exam for Fall and March 1 is the deadline to activate your exam for SPRING.
Your AP® Class teachers will issue you Join Codes.
ALL students should JOIN the AP® Class on the MyAP website to access the free instructional resources provided by College Board.
Students choosing to take the option exam must also submit a deposit to completely initiate the exam order .
For courses that COMMENCE in the Spring, students will complete this step once the course commences. Deadline is March 1, 2024 for Spring.
Step 3: Submit exam fees – Submit exam fees by clicking the link below. Orders are submitted based on the enrollment term in which the course corresponding to the exam commences.
The deadline to submit fees for exams corresponding to your FALL classes is November 1, 2023.
The deadline to submit fees for exams corresponding to your SPRING classes is March 1, 2024.
The online payment submission system accepts credit card or debit card as well as mail in payments. There is an online payment fee of 3.1% for payments submitted by credit or debit card. To submit an order using a check or money order, which has no additional fee, please complete the payment form online and follow the directions to mail in your order form and payment to the address on your confirmation email. Postmark deadline for Fall Classes mail in payments is October 26, 2023. Postmark deadline for Spring Classes mail in payments is February 27, 2024.
Both Step 1 and 2 must be completed by the applicable term deadline to activate the exam order. Failure to complete both steps 1 and 2 by the deadline means the AP® Coordinator for your school cannot submit an exam order with College Board.
Tips for setting up your College Board Profile on MyAP:
– Use an email address that you will have access to throughout high school AND university
– Make sure to enter your COMPLETE legal name to prevent issues with sending score reports to colleges and universities
– Enter your school student ID number to assist your school in reporting your attendance to the exam to the CHS Attendance Office AND help identify errors in names.
I can’t access my College Board Profile account or am not sure I have one. What do I do?
The College Board Profile is the same account used to access your past years’ AP® scores, PSAT® scores, and SAT® scores. Do not create a new one! Each student should have only ONE unique account. If you are unable to access the account, try using the ‘Forget Password?’ link on http://myap.collegeboard.org OR email apstudents@info.collegeboard.org OR call 888-225-5427 for assistance.
Where do I get the Join Code to complete the join step on the MyAP site?
Join Codes are subject, teacher, and period specific. Please see your AP® teacher ASAP to complete the step by November 1 for courses that commence in the Fall and by March 1 for the Spring. (Students in courses that COMMENCE in the Spring should wait until the course commences.)
What if I miss the deadline to submit fees?
