AP Exam Registration Fall 2024-25

2024-25 ADVANCED PLACEMENT TESTING PAYMENT AND REGISTRATION INFORMATION

NORTHSHORE SCHOOL DISTRICT DOES NOT ALLOW FOR OUT OF DISTRICT REGISTRATION FOR ADVANCED PLACEMENT EXAMS. PLEASE CONTACT YOUR HOME SCHOOL FOR ADVANCED PLACEMENT EXAM PROCTORING.

On-Time Deadline: November 15, 2024
Late Deadline: March 7, 2025

Posted 02/04/25

The 2025 AP exams will cover the full content in each AP course, so students have the opportunity to receive college credit and/or placement. 

• Every AP student should keep their options open by registering for the exam on time because there will still be a $40 fee for late orders. 

The College Board will support in-school testing in 2025 because administering exams in schools maximizes access and opportunity. If safety concerns still prohibit any students from testing at a school, the College Board will provide a contingency testing option that contains full course content.  

Students - Create a College Board Account: Students will need a College Board account to join their AP class section, receive AP assignments from teachers, get feedback on class progress, and register for AP exams (note: parents should not create an account for the student). If you don’t have a student account, go to www.collegeboard.org/register.

Already Have a College Board Account? All College Board programs are connected through one account. If an account was created for AP, PSAT/NMSQT or SAT, you just need your username and password to sign in.

Advanced Placement Exam Registration & Payment is a two-step process (Both parts must be completed for each AP exam to be registered, ordered, and paid for). 

• STEP 1: Students will need to login or create a College Board account via myap.collegeboard.org. Students will also need a “join code” (see all join codes at the bottom of this communication) to join a class section. Note: An exam cannot be ordered for you until you complete Step 1! Students do not need to be enrolled in an AP course to take an AP exam. If you want to take an AP exam and are not enrolled in an AP course, you will still need a join code to register, order, and pay for an exam. Please contact AP Coordinator Andrea Baleva abaleva@nsd.org to get a join code issued.

   

• STEP 2: Students will PAY for their AP exam fees via www.TotalRegistration.net/AP/481598 Note: An exam cannot be fully ordered and paid for you until you complete Step 1! (The College Board does not accept payment when registering for an AP exam so we have to use a second party to accept and track exam payment.)

• AP Registration Payment Deadline: November 15, 2024

• Late registration fee mandated by College Board: Students may register for an AP exam AFTER November 15th, 2024 and up until March 7, 2025, but will have to pay an additional $40 per exam late order fee.
