How do I order an AP Exam?
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 that will link you to your specific teacher and subject. November 1, 2023 is the deadline to activate your exam.
Step 2: Submit Exam Fees – Click on the link below to submit the exam fees corresponding to your exam subjects. Deadline to submit exam fees and avoid penalty payments is November 1, 2023.
Both Step 1 and 2 must be completed by November 1, 2023 to complete 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 to College Board for your and the exam will be deactivated.
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 and that is checked frequently so you can receive alerts regarding your exams
– Make sure to enter your COMPLETE legal name to prevent issues with sending score reports to colleges and universities
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.
