Process to submit AP scores for college applications?

Yo everyone! I recently did the AP tests and I'm pretty sure I did decently. Now the question is, how do I send these scores to colleges? Like, is there a specific way or protocol for doing so? Your help would be really appreciated!

Hey there! Great job tackling those AP exams! Now, about sending the scores to colleges—AP scores are typically sent through the College Board website. There's a tool there that allows you to select the colleges where you want to send scores.

Usually, when you register for the tests, you can designate one college to receive your scores for free. Later on, if you decide to send your scores to more colleges, there would be a fee per college. Keep in mind that while colleges will look at your AP scores if you send them, they're generally not a major factor in the admissions process.

Instead, they're more often used for course placement once you're enrolled, or to potentially earn college credit. But remember, this varies with each university, so it's good to check each institution's policy. Conversely, you might decide what scores to send based on those policies.

One more thing: the specific protocol to send scores might vary slightly by college or university, so you'll want to check each institution's admissions website for any specific instructions. Cheers and best of luck in your applications!
