Most colleges will offer credit or advancement to students who achieve a “qualifying test score” on this international exam.  The “qualifying test score” for any given subject exam is at the discretion of the college your son or daughter ultimately attends. Colleges often indicate their AP score requirements on their website.

Each student will be provided an information bulletin which explains Advanced Placement examination policies and procedures. Extra forms are available in both the Main and North Campus Guidance Offices, as well as at the following link: Download Registration Form (Word Format)

Please note that the cost of each exam is $94.00 payable in full, by the registration deadline so that the school can order a test for your child. This exam fee is non-refundable.  Check or money order must be written payable to “Newburgh Enlarged City School District.” Please be sure the student’s full name appears on the memo line of the check or money order along with his or her ID# and the name of each exam being ordered.

If your son or daughter decides to participate in this year’s testing, please remind him or her to bring the Registration Form and payment to room 235 in the Main Campus on Friday, February 2, 2018 between the hours of 8:00 - 11:00 a.m. or to Ms. Castrovinci in the North Campus Guidance Office on or before the deadline of Friday, February 2, 2018.  There will be no extensions.  Please contact your child’s school counselor if you have any questions.
