General Policies and Information:
1. Advanced Placement (AP®) Examinations must be ordered in advance. Registration for the 2021 Advanced Placement (AP®) exams administration runs from August 24, 2020 until October 30, 2020 (midnight CST.)*
2. The cost of each AP® exam is $95. A deposit of $40 is due by October 30, 2020 to initiate the exam order. The balance of the fees will be invoiced via email and are due paid in full by February 15, 2021.

4. To activate the exam on the College Board site, students will log into their College Board profile accounts via the MyAP system at http://myap.collegeboard.org
A College Board profile is the same account used to order last year’s AP® exams, SAT® exams, or to collect PSAT/NMSQT® and AP® Exam scores from past years. If a student does not have a profile, they will need to create one.
Students will need a Join Code (or access code) to connect their profile to their specific AP® subjects. Join Codes are subject, teacher and class period specific. Join Codes will be distributed in class. Once you have joined the class online, click on “Register for Exam” to activate the exam.
Make sure all the registration and profile pages are complete on MyAP, including: your full legal name (should match school records), your student ID number, your school name, and an email address where you can receive important exam day information from APTS and/or the College Board.
See the FAQs for more details.
5. To have a successfully activated exam order, a student must complete both exam activation and deposit submission by the October 30, 2020 deadline. Failure to complete either or both steps will mean that your school’s AP Coordinator will not be able to submit your exam order to the College Board.*
Students who have successfully completed steps 1 and 2 listed at the top of this page in the Fall, will receive on or around December 1, 2020 a custom digital invoice via email for any applicable balance due. The email will be sent to the parent email address provided on the deposit form. Deadline to submit the balance of fees due is February 15, 2021.
Deposit and balance due payments can be submitted online via credit card and debit card payments as well as check payment mailed in. Instructions will be provided at the end of the deposit form as well as on the custom invoice for the balance due that will be emailed. Postmark deadlines apply.
6. Fee reductions are available to qualifying students which reduces the cost of exams significantly. To apply for a fee reduction, see Mr. Cortez for assistance (or email at ocortez@nbisd.org) to obtain a Fee Reduction Discount Code. Once you have the discount code, you can complete your online deposit form on this website. You will still submit a $40 exam deposit by October 30, but the Fee Reduction Code will adjust your balance due on the invoice that you will receive in December.
