confused about ap score reports& csu colleges?

<p>Ok, I've been doing some research but I guess I'm just not understanding.
First off, if we want to send our AP scores to any CSU app school, how do we send it?
Do we call the Collegeboard people and ask them to send a report to every school? Because I'm applying to about 5, and that's alot of reports to send, and alot of money to pay.
Does the CSU system work the same as the UC, where if you send one report to one school, all the schools will get it?
If someone can just lay down the basics of how to send AP scores, and especially to CSU schools and if I can save money and not have to send 5 separate reports, I would appreciate it alot!</p>

<p>Are the AP scores used in lieu of high school courses for the a-g requirements, as described in <a href=“http://www.calstate.edu/sas/publications/documents/AdmissionHandbook.pdf[/url]”>http://www.calstate.edu/sas/publications/documents/AdmissionHandbook.pdf&lt;/a&gt; (page 5-8)?</p>

<p>CSUs (other than SLO) just calculate an eligibility index from GPA and test scores. See [CSUMentor</a> - Plan for College - High School Students - GPA Calculator](<a href=“Cal State Apply | CSU”>Cal State Apply | CSU) and [CSUMentor</a> - Plan for College - High School Students - Calculate Your Eligibility Index](<a href=“Cal State Apply | CSU”>Cal State Apply | CSU) . So you may want to wait until you matriculate to send AP scores if you do not need them to fulfill a-g requirements.</p>

<p>Sending test scores to CSUs can be done as described here: [CSUMentor</a> - Plan for College - High School Students - Grades and Test Scores](<a href=“Cal State Apply | CSU”>Freshman: Testing Requirements | CSU)</p>
