The AP Program is a collaborative effort among motivated students, dedicated teachers, and committed high schools, colleges, and universities. The AP program allows students to take college-level courses and exams, and to earn college credit or placement while still in high school. The exam costs $83. Some students may qualify for a lower fee. The exams are given in May. See your counselor if you are interested.
