AP Message from Mrs. Burnham

 

AP EXAM FEE $21

-Fee waivers are available if you qualify for the federal free/reduced lunch program. There will be a place to mark that in the online registration account (Total Registration) in lieu of entering a form of payment. You still have to complete all steps below.

 

REGISTRATION & PAYMENT PROCESS:

*AP Exam ordering and payment is a TWO step process. You have to pay and enroll on two different sites!

  1. Registration and Payment – Total Registration

We are using Total Registration to handle our AP exam payments this year. Students must create an account and login to register and pay for their exams.  This will provide students with the option to pay with a credit card (students may also pay by credit or debit card – visa or mastercard only, check, or cashier’s check if they want/need to).  Students previously using Total Registration in years past will already have an account and will click ‘login here’ at the bottom of the site. If you elect to mail your payment, TR must receive and process it before the deadline otherwise you’ll need to pay with a card.

There will be a link on our school website “AP EXAMS” that you can click on or you can access the registration site directly at www.TotalRegistration.net/AP/180200

  1. Enroll/Register – MyAP CollegeBoard account

Students must enroll in their AP courses and mark their exam intent in the CollegeBoard’s MyAP Classroom system.  This is done at MyAP.CollegeBoard.org. You will login with your existing College Board student account (if you have previously taken AP, PSAT or SAT exams) or you will create a new College Board student account. You should have already created an account and joined your course with the code given to you by your teacher in the first month of the course.  Change your exam indicator to yes or no.

 

*Note: Total Registration is used to record payment while CollegeBoard's MyAP Classroom is used to mark intent for the actual order. One cannot be completed without the other.

FEES & DEADLINES:

Fall/Full Year courses:

Students currently in a fall or full year AP course at Marshall County High School must register and pay for exams by Wednesday, November 8. The registration window opens Wednesday, October 18. Students will not be able to register after 11/8.

Spring courses:

Students taking a spring semester course must register and pay by March 8, 2024. The registration window opens February 14 for those courses.  The CS/IT Academy at KDE is paying for all AP CSP exams for interested students. Students still must complete both portions of the registration and payment process.

 

*If you do not sign up and pay for the exam during your course’s registration window (fall/full year or spring) there will not be an exam ordered for you – no exceptions. 

 

*Digital: The following exams will be digital (not paper/pencil): AP Lit, AP CSP, AP US.

 

 

REFUND POLICY:

  • Students who cancel an exam after the exam’s registration period OR do not sit for an ordered exam will be charged a $40 cancellation fee from CollegeBoard.
  • There are no refunds after the exam’s registration period ends.
  • Students can cancel an exam during the exam’s respective registration period and receive a full refund.
    • Fall and full year courses – By 11/8/22
    • Spring courses – by 3/8/23
