3. Payment submission for AP® exams will be done through a digital invoice through APTS. Students with active exam orders on MyAP will receive on September 19, 2019 a custom digital invoice. Invoices will be emailed to the email address on the student’s College Board profile.
4. The fees due can be submitted either by online payment (credit or debit card), or via mailing in a check or money order. Instructions will be provided in the invoice.
Use of a credit or debit card to complete the online payment form will incur a 3% credit card processing fee.

Mail in options should be payable to “APTS.” If you select this option, you must postmark your payment on or before October 26, 2019 to ensure timely processing.
Payment of the balance due in full must be submitted by October 30, 2019.
No late fee submission is possible.
5. Fee reductions are possible for qualified students. If you feel you may qualify for a fee reduction on your exams, please see Mr. Ostini, Dean of Students, ASAP. Approval for fee reductions will be based on criteria established by the College Board. If approved, you will be issued a new, updated Exam Fee Invoice via email for a reduced amount of $53 per exam. Please make sure to see Mr. Ostini as soon as possible.
6. Cancellations/Refunds:To request an exam cancellation, please email cancel@aptsusa.com and include your name, name of your school, and the exam title to be cancelled.

Check in for morning exams will be promptly at 7:45 a.m. Afternoon exam check in will be promptly at 11:45 a.m. Exam administration will begin as soon as check in is completed so students must arrive promptly at the time check in opens. Students who arrive after the actual exam administration begins will not be admitted. No exceptions. Exams will take approximately four hours. Please notify your sports coaches of AP exam dates and times and plan accordingly. Students are not allowed to leave any AP Exam early.
