AP Students and Families:
Students enrolled in Advanced Placement courses are preparing themselves for college-level work in addition to challenging themselves academically. As the registration for AP exams begins, we have detailed the process for registration, payment, and fees.
This year, students are responsible for the cost of exams, unless your 11th or 12th grader has met College & Career Readiness (CCR) Standards. As outlined in the Blueprint for Maryland’s Future, BCPS will cover the cost for up to six exams if you have met CCR Standards. There are ways all students, regardless of CCR status, can incur fees. Please pay careful attention to registration dates and deadlines. Please see the following chart for additional exam fee information:

Unused/canceled exam fee
If you decide after the November 5th ordering deadline not to take an exam that was ordered for you, the charge is $40 per exam instead of the full exam fee. The $40 fee applies to any unused or canceled exams, including an exam ordered for a student who qualifies for a College Board fee reduction. It’s important to tell your AP coordinator if you decide not to take an exam.
This fee doesn’t apply if you transfer out of a school.
