<p>Hey !
Do you guys know when we were supposed to request a AP score report to send to the colleges we applied to?
I know that on the Common Ap, there is a space to self report the scores, but I forgot to do so..... I've sent in the SAT reports, but i forgot about AP scores...
Do I have to request a report be sent?</p>
<p>Thanks!!</p>
<p>You request to report them in May when (I'm assuming) you take more AP exams. You'll save money because you only need to put down the college to which you intend to enroll in (by May, you'll know where you got in and whatnot) and it won't cost you anything. After you take the exams, however, it'll cost you 15 dollars. </p>
<p>You don't send your AP exam scores like you send your SAT/ACT scores. They only go to the college that you're enrolling in.</p>
<p>OH, okay
THANKS atrophicwhisper!</p>
<p>serena, </p>
<p>If your scores are very good and you think they will give you an edge for admission or scholarships, you should send a note of some sort explaining that you forgot to fill them in on the Common App. (I'm wondering if they will assume you do not want them to know the scores since you left that section blank.)</p>
<p>It is up to you, though. There is no requirement to send an official report unless the college has specifically said they want one at the time of admission.</p>
<p>i don't remember any ap score portion on the common app...:(
just checked. there isn't any place for ap scores...just act, sat i, sat ii, and toefl</p>
<p>Erm, I applied to all my colleges, but I did NOT send my ap score report. I selfreported it. OoopS?</p>
<p>It would have been beneficial to include to mail the APs around the same time as your SAT, as high AP scores can validate grades or academic interests.</p>
<p>If at all possible, send them as soon as possible. You have to eventually, if you want to try and utilize those credits. So better earlier than later.</p>
<p>Yea, i was wondering about this too. I have not sent any AP scores to the colleges I have applied to. Should i send them now, or wait until may when I take the last of my exams(so they can be sent only to the school I intend on going to).</p>
<p>Self-reporting AP scores is just fine.</p>
<p>If you had high scores that you think would strengthen your academic resume, then send them now.</p>
<p>Be sure to check first with the specific schools you are applying to for their policies on reporting AP scores. There are some schools that do require you to have official AP test scores sent from the College Board if you want them to be considered in the admissions process. (I know that University of Rochester is one of them.) But the majority of schools will let you self-report AP scores.</p>
<p>worried_mom, is that a new requirement at Rochester this year? Last year, my d's AP score was self-reported, and her admissions counselor told us that he looked at it; she only sent the official report when she decided to enroll.</p>
<p>Chedva, I don't know if it is a new requirement or not, but it is definitely in effect this year, because I called to confirm whether or not they needed official AP score reports from College Board. (I was trying to save the $15, LOL!) UR said they had to have some sort of verification if my son wanted the scores to be considered. However, UR would accept AP test scores that were recorded on the official high school transcript in lieu of the CB report.</p>
<p>Thanks, worried_mom. I guess d was lucky; they accepted her anyway!</p>
<p>If you have high scores, 4's and 5's, then I would order a report from College Board to be sent to your top choice schools. The report from the College Board is more credible than self reported scores and you never know what will give you the edge with your top choice school. Good luck.</p>
