Follow All Steps Below Carefully to Register and Pay for AP Exams.
 
1. Students should log in to myap.collegeboard.org using their existing Collegeboard username and password. Students will be using the same login information they currently use to register for PSAT, SAT, or to access their AP scores. 
- First-time AP students without an existing Collegeboard account will need to create an account.
 
For students creating a Collegeboard account for the first time, use a personal email address, not a PVPUSD email address, as emails from the Collegeboard are often blocked by district firewalls.
 
2. Once logged on to myap.collegeboard.org click the yellow button that says “Join a Course or Exam” and enter the specific join code provided by your teacher. Review the information and confirm it is the correct class. A student should do this for each AP class they are enrolled in.
CB 1
Note: All students’ accounts are automatically set to “YES” for their exam registration.  This does not mean that all students must take the test.  If a student is not planning on taking the AP test, students should manually go in and adjust their exam status to “NO.” If they are not able to, they are responsible for communicating with the AP coordinator or Ms.Olivia in the Main Office to make appropriate corrections This must be completed by November 6th, or it will be assumed that the student is taking the test, and the $50 cancellation fee will apply.  After joining the class, click the yellow button that says “Register for Exam”.   
             CB 2
 
Continue to steps 3 & 4 for information on how to pay for AP exams and complete your registration.  Please note: Students should register and pay for second-semester classes simultaneously with other exam registrations.      
 
3. Go to https://user.totalregistration.net/AP/052358 and pay for any AP exams through the Total Registration website, similar to previous years. Existing students will log in with their username and password.  First-time AP students need to create an account. We highly recommend that you use a personal email address to log in.  This email address should be the SAME address that you use for the College Board.

4. Once logged in, click on “Register for Exams”. All AP tests should be registered and paid for at the same time. Each AP exam costs $110.00 except for AP Seminar and Research, which cost $158. There is a $50.00 late fee for signing up past the registration deadline. Students requiring financial assistance should contact school administrators.
 
** Students MUST pay online on the TOTAL REGISTRATION WEBSITE with a credit card**
