Hey guys, I am planning my test schedule for the next year. Can anyone give me a rough idea of how much an AP test is? Is the cost same for all subjects? Any advice or info would help, thanks!
Hello there! Yes, the cost of an AP test is the same for all subjects. The standard AP Exam fee for the 2024-2025 school year is $98 per exam in the U.S., U.S. territories, and Canada, and $128 per exam for all other locations.
However, there are reductions and subsidies available for eligible students. The College Board offers a $36 reduction per exam for eligible students with financial need. In addition, many states, and some school districts, cover all or part of the exam costs for students who are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. There are also other resources like local scholarships or grants that may be available to provide financial support.
Please talk to your exam coordinator or school counselor about fee reductions and subsidies that may be applicable to you. It's also worth noting that there's a $40 fee for each unused/canceled exam and a $40 late order fee, so ensure you finalize your decisions within the College Board's deadline to avoid extra charges.
