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 if you have not already done so. Many students have completed this step in class to that they are able to access the free course resources.
Step 2: Submit Exam Fees: Students who wish to take AP® exams in May 2023 must submit exam fees to order the exams. Click on the link below to submit. Deadline to submit the exam fees in full is November 1, 2022.
Both Step 1 and 2 must be completed by November 1, 2022 to activate the exam order. Failure to complete both steps 1 and 2 by the November 1 deadline means the AP Coordinator for your school cannot submit an exam order as initiated 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 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. The activation step has likely happened in class. If you were absent, please see your AP® teacher ASAP to complete the step.
How do I know if my exam is activated on MyAP?
If you successfully joined the class with the teacher issued join code, you will see when you log into MyAP the class listed on your dashboard and to the right, the exam name, exam date, and the host school listed.
What if I miss the November 1 deadline to submit a fee?
A penalty submission period is available from November 18, 2022 through March 3, 2023. A $40 per exam penalty fee will be added to the cost of the exam during the late registration period.
How do I submit the exam fees?
Fee 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 fee form and in your e-mail confirmation which will be sent to the email address you provide on the registration form. Postmark deadline to ensure timely mail in fee processing is October 25, 2022.
I’m eligible for a fee reduction. What do I need to do?
Students eligible for a fee reduction will indicate that on the payment form. The exam fee for those eligible for a reduction will be $30 per exam. Eligibility will be verified.
I no longer need to or want to take the exam. What do I do to cancel? Can I get a refund?
Students who submitted an exam order and decide to withdraw and cancel an exam are eligible for a refund of the base exam fees minus a $2.50 processing charge if the refund request is submitted before 11:59pm PST on November 1, 2022. Refund/cancellation requests submitted after November 1, 2022 and before 11:59pm on March 5, 2023 will be eligible for a partial refund minus $42.50. (A $2.50 processing charge and a $40 College Board cancellation penalty fee will be retained.) To request a cancellation and refund, email the APTS Cancellation Desk at cancel@aptsusa.com and include the student name, name of the school, and the title of the exam to cancel.
