All AP Exams must be ordered and paid for by October 30, 2020.  This is a two-step process.  First, students/parents must go onto AP College Board and register for the exam at myap.collegeboard.org. Students will need to get their join code from their teacher if they are currently enrolled in an AP class.  If they are not enrolled in an AP class, but want to take the exam, they must see either Sherilyn Williams or Nicole Huff in the Counseling Center prior to October 30, 2020.  The next step is to go onto Total Registration and PAY FOR THE EXAM.  The website for Total Registration is totalregistration.net/450193.  A late fee of $40 will be assessed starting November 14, 2020. Contact sherilyn.williams@canyonsdistrict.org with any questions or concerns or to request information about fee waivers.
