AP Exam Registration Deadlines:
*Semester 2 course is March 12, 2021

AP Exam registration is a 3 part process: AP Portal set to YES for each exam, completion of the google form, and full payment. 

1. Students must log into their College Board account and join the course using the join code their teacher gives them before the ordering deadline.  Joining course will automatically register students for the exam.  College Board is not charging any cancellation or unused exam fees this year.  This means that ALL students' exam decisions should be set to YES (this has already been set as the default).  If a student selects 'No' then changes their mind after the ordering deadline they will be charged a late order fee.
