Hello everyone, so I kind of dropped the ball on AP exam registration. Is there still a chance for me to sign up, or is there a hard deadline? Need to get this sorted ASAP for my college apps.
Hello there! No worries, we've all had those moments where we've let deadlines slip by. The official deadline to register for AP exams is typically in November; however, there might still be an option for you. The College Board does allow for late registration with a late fee up until a certain date in March. The exact date can vary from year to year, so it's important that you check with your AP Coordinator at your school as soon as possible to get the accurate deadline and process for late registration.
Keep in mind that while late registration is possible, schools might have their own internal deadlines that are earlier, and it's essential to adhere to those to ensure that your exams are ordered in time. Once you speak with your AP Coordinator, you should be clear on your school's particular policies and what steps you need to take next for late registration. If it turns out to be too late, don't panic – focus on excelling in your AP courses and other aspects of your college applications. Good luck!
