    AP Exam Registration 2021-2022

    We are pleased that your student has chosen to take an Advanced Placement (AP) course this year and want to assist you in planning for the AP exam, which will be administered in person, at school, via a paper test May 2-13, 2022. Students must register for an AP test by Friday, November 5. This can be done on the College Board’s website at https://apstudents.collegeboard.org/. Requests received after that date will result in a $40 late fee, per test. Students who register for a test but do not take it may be charged a $40 unused test fee.
     
    The AP exam administration schedule is below. Loudoun County Public Schools will be closed on Tuesday, May 3, in observance of a religious holiday. Students scheduled to take the AP Environmental Science and/or AP Psychology exams on May 3 will be rescheduled to test on Tuesday, May 17, during the late testing window. No fees or penalties will result from this change.
     
    Students must provide their own transportation to school on the day of testing. Morning exams begin at 7:45 AM and afternoon exams begin at 12:15 PM, with exams lasting about 4 hours. Students may not be dismissed from an exam until all students have finished testing, per College Board regulations. Please make every effort to schedule vacations, appointments, or other activities on dates that do not conflict with the test administration dates, as make-up testing is permitted for verified emergencies only.

    • Frequently Asked Questions

      Where can I find my AP Classroom join code?

      Your teacher will provide this code during the first weeks of school.  You must log into your College Board account to use the join code.  All test registrations will default to "undecided" status; thus, students must select "yes" or "no" in the dropdown in order to register for an exam in each AP course that they are enrolled.  Use this QUICK LINK for help on how to join AP Classroom with you teacher's join code.  

      Can I take an exam at the Academies if I am scheduled to attend school there on my test day?

      Students who attend the Academies of Loudoun can choose to test at the Academies or at their home school.  If you would like to do this, please ask Mr. Kozikowski or Mrs. Hallman (Academies of Loudoun Testing Coordinator) for an exam only join code.  You must complete registration by November 5, 2021.  This cannot be changed without a late fee being applied after that date.  Use this QUICK LINK in order to see the direct information from the Academies.
