MANDATORY PRE-REGISTRATION SESSIONS WILL BE HELD: FRIDAY, MARCH 31ST (Plus Block) &
MONDAY, APRIL 3RD (After School)
You must attend ONE of these sessions
This is a one-time information gathering session, designed to eliminate a minimum of 30 minutes of extra testing time on test day for each test
You must pre-register before taking your AP exam; there are NO EXCEPTIONS!
Your score reporting form and number will be given to you that day - Don’t lose this number! You will need it to check your test scores!

9. TEST DATES & TIMES May 1st – May 12th 8 AM, 12 PM, 2PM
You are expected to be in your classes prior to your AP tests; if you come in just for your test your parent will need to call you in tardy and give you a note for being late to school.
You may leave school after your morning AP test.
THERE ARE NO OPTIONS FOR BEING TARDY FOR A TEST! TESTING START TIMES ARE HARD TIMES. BE EARLY! IF YOU ARE ON TIME, YOU ARE LATE

10. MAKE UP TESTING: 5/17 -5/19
If you miss a test, there are options to make it up (if you choose to do so):
If you simply miss the test, then you pay a change of exam fee and take it on a retake date
For allowed circumstances, such as sickness, religious holidays, natural disaster, another exam, etc., no fee will be added, but you MUST let us know if you are not able to make a test date. The list of legitimate reasons for late testing is available at:
You may not test early, nor test later in the day (i.e. tardy to school, game, etc.)

11. TEST REFUNDS/CANCELLATION
CHS has earlier deadlines for registration than what is listed on college board’s website
If a student registers for an exam and cancels by March 7, a full refund will be issued
IF A STUDENT IS REGISTERED FOR AN EXAM AND CANCELS UP UNTIL MARCH 22 A REFUND OF $76 WILL BE ISSUED IN APPROXIMATELY 6 – 8 WEEKS.
Cancellation FEE after March 7 will be $20 due to college board restocking fees.

12. EARNING COLLEGE CREDIT FOR YOUR AP SCORES
VISIT: to learn how to earn credit for your scores.
If you are accepted to a school or awaiting acceptance, you should research your school’s policies regarding AP credit.
Deciding to attend a school that does not accept AP scores after you register for the test does not qualify for a refund
