Advanced Placement Classes and Exams
- Students enrolled in Advanced Placement (AP) courses are expected to take the AP exams in May 2023.
- AP exams will be administered per the College Board schedule from May 1 to May 12, 2023.
- The fee for regular exams is $101. The fee for capstone exams is $151.

must join for each AP class they take. When students join the portal, a
response of “undecided” will show for “order test”. Students must change
their selection to YES or NO by November 1 (for every class/test). If the
deadline is not met, there will be an additional $40 late fee for ordering
a test. - In addition to the late ordering fee, the College Board will also charge $40
for any test that is canceled after November 15 or not taken during
administration. Please note that the $40 is charged regardless of whether a student qualifies for a fee waiver or not. - The payment window for AP exams is between December 15, 2022 and
February 28, 2023. Specific directions or payment will be shared in
