2. Activating an Exam Order
To have a successful exam order students need to complete both of the following steps:
1 | Activate your AP® Exam on MyAP by joining your AP® Class with the Join Code from your teacher. Complete by the deadline |
2 | Submit exam fees by the 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.
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 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.
Make sure all the registration and profile pages are complete on MyAP, including: your FULL legal name (should match school records – Do not use nicknames!), your PCS School Information, and an email address where you can receive important exam day information from APTS and/or the College Board.
Make sure to use an email address where you frequently check email. It should be the student email address.
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. Please see your AP® Class teacher to obtain a Join Code before October 20, 2025 and complete the process on MyAP.
