Advanced Placement 2024 -Important Ordering Information:

Students receive “Join Codes” from their AP teachers to join the AP Classroom and to register for their exams.

By using the join code, students are automatically enrolled in the exam and a fee of $98 per exam will be added to their Infinite Campus account after the November ordering deadline. 

Students that do not wish to take the exam must read and complete the opt-out form by November 14, 2023, to avoid a $40 cancellation fee (see below for more information about the opt-out form).

What are Advanced Placement (AP) exams? 

Advanced Placement (AP) tests are college-level exams on specific subjects given by College Board. HPHS students who are enrolled in AP courses are strongly encouraged to take the exam in May 2024, as students who score a 3 or above can earn college credit at many colleges and universities. In addition, students who self-study for an exam (that is, they are not currently taking the corresponding AP course at HPHS but are studying on their own) can also sit for the exam. 

When are the May 2024 exams being administered?

• Exams will be administered between May 6-17, 2024. 

Registration for AP Exams
