AP Exam Registration
You’ll typically need to register for your AP exams by early November. The exact date can vary by school, so it’s a good idea to check with your AP coordinator or counselor to get the specific deadline for your school.
If you miss the November deadline, some schools might offer late registration, though it usually comes with an extra fee. It’s worth finding out if this is an option at your school and checking the deadlines for late registration.
To register, you’ll need to talk to your school’s AP coordinator, fill out any necessary forms, and pay the exam fees. Be sure to verify your registration to make sure you’re signed up for the correct exams and times.
So, make a note of the registration deadlines and get everything sorted out in advance! If you have any questions, your AP coordinator will be the best person to help. If you need help with everything else, you know where to find us at Pittsburgh Prep!
