AP scores

<p>i saw that the Common App asks you to mention the AP Scores in the academic honors section... well how do they know our official AP scores? is there someway we can submit them in?</p>

<p>Yes you can have them sent for free as well if you filled it in when you took it</p>

<p>how do we send them in for free?
is it somewhere on the collegeboard site?</p>

<p>You can't send them in for free anymore. Collective was just saying that if you specified on your AP test booklet way back in may that you wanted to send it to a specific college, it would've been free. </p>

<p>If you want to send an AP test score report now, it costs 15 bucks (rip-off, i know...) and you'll have to go onto the college board website for more info. I'd suggest to send AP scores for only the most selective schools (and if your scores are really good). Once you decide to attend a specific university, you can send them in for real if you haven't already.</p>

<p>Yeah talk about a rip-off, I got mine rush-ordered in a blind panic when applying cause I realized that none of my schools got it. I think it used to be a set additional tack-on for rush-ordering, now it's a +$10 per. For a supposedly non-profit company Collegeboard sure does like its money :P</p>

<p>btw i think you send in your ap scores to the school not commonapp. The only people who verify ur commonapp are admin officers at the schools you apply to.</p>

<p>^ Good catch. To clarify, yes you do send it to the individual schools.</p>

<p>You don't have to send an official AP score report as part of your application, unless a school specifically requests it. You only send it in the summer after high school graduation to the school you're going to go to, and only if your AP scores will give you either credit or allow you to skip intro courses.</p>

<p>Self-reporting your scores on your application is generally sufficient for admisssions.</p>
