Avon High School-AP Exam Registration Information 2024-2025
Taking the Advanced Placement exam is an important part of all AP courses. Avon High School desires that all students take AP exams for the AP classes that they have taken. Scoring well on an AP exam may earn a student college credit for their high school class.
For the 2026 AP exams, students at Avon High School will be registering online. Online Exam registration will begin on October 1 at 12:00 AM and end on October 17 at 11:59 PM. The AP exam registration process is two steps, but both can be completed in one sitting when the student and parent/guardian do this together. Even if you do not plan to take the AP exam, you need to complete both steps to access the College Board’s AP resources. Both steps must be completed in order to have AP exams ordered:
Step 1: Begin the process by registering at www.TotalRegistration.net/AP/070008. Here you will indicate both the AP courses you are taking this year and the exams you wish to take. You will receive your join codes from your classroom teachers and directions to complete the second required step. Any exam fees will be paid online so be sure to have a debit card or credit card available before beginning registration. Paying online is a great way to make sure that payment has been made while avoiding mailing payment.
Step 2: Use the join codes provided at the completion of step one or what was given by your AP teacher to enroll the student's AP courses and exams. This is a reminder that this must be done on the AP Portal on the College Board's system. Most students probably completed this step in the first week or so of the school year.
This year each AP exam costs $100. Students requiring financial assistance should contact Ms Julia Cowans-Wilhelm, jcowans@avon.k12.ct.us, in the AHS LMC to learn more.
