AP Exams at State High

AP exam registration begins here!

AP exams cost $105 through Nov. 1 and $145 thereafter. No exams can be ordered after March 1. See the FAQ for more details.

SCAHS students who are eligible for free or reduced lunches also qualify for free or reduced AP exam costs on up to 4 exams per year.

All AP students who are taking their first ever exam in 2025 qualify for a one-test fee waiver to cover the full cost of their exam.

Students who qualify for any free-test waivers must complete the appropriate form in STEP 2 of the exam registration process by November 1, 2025.

_________________

To avoid test-day confusion, we strongly urge students to create their own College Board Account to register for AP exams (instead of having parents do this on their behalf). To ensure students receive all AP exam communications, they should use their SCASD email to create this account.

At MY AP on the College Board website you will:

Enter the join code for each of your State High AP classes (your teacher will give you this code)
Your exam decision will be "undecided" when you enter a join code for a class. To confirm your intention to take the exam, you must change your decision to "YES."
If a student has not paid for their exam in the Community Ed payment portal by Nov. 1, their exam decision will be change to "NO" and no exam will be ordered.

At MY AP you can also:

Do AP prep and practice in AP Classroom.
Access your AP scores in July
Check scores for other assessments, like SAT and PSAT

To complete the payment process you will do ONLY one of the following three things:

Visit MySchoolBucks or pay the invoice you received for your exams. Parent note: make sure the test is purchased for your child, not for you.
Students who are eligible for free or reduced lunch, complete this form (this form must be completed by Nov. 1, 2025 to be eligible for reduced fees for year-long and fall tests). This is done in lieu of paying at the Community Ed portal.
Students who are eligible for their first test free, complete this form (this form must be completed by Nov. 1, 2025 to be eligible for the first test free waiver). This is done in lieu of paying at the Community Ed portal.

If you have not completed both steps 1 & 2 (clicked "register" for your exam(s) in My AP and paid or completed a fee waiver form) no exam(s) will be ordered for you.

HOME SCHOOL students who reside in the State College Area School District boundaries and who intend to take AP Exams at State High must register for their exams by November 1. Contact Jen Rand to request a join code for an exam section at College Board.

Students registered at any other school may not take exams at SCAHS.
