AP Exams
The purpose of the AP exams is two-fold:
- It introduces students to college-level courses while in high school.
- The AP exam gives students the potential to earn college credit (depending on the college’s policy).
Students who take an AP class are strongly encouraged to take the exam, however the exam is optional.
Each exam costs $99. A late fee of $40 applies for any exams ordered past the deadline. No exams can be ordered after March 1, 2027.
