COST: $94 per exam
The College Board provides a fee reduction per exam for students in financial need (specific criteria exist*), re-
sulting in a cost of $0-53 per exam. EXAMS MUST BE PAID IN FULL!!!! NO MORE DEPOSITS!
*In the spring, AP will announce further federal and state funding that can further reduce the exam fee for students
in financial need. Typically, Wisconsin requires school districts to “pick up the tab” for students who qualify for
the Federal Free and Reduced Lunch program. However, that information isn’t published at this time.
If you are a parent of or a student with a documented disability, and want accommodations for an AP test, you
must contact Peter Senti the EHS AP Coordinator, ASAP. The process to request accommodations is lengthy, time
-consuming, and requires a great deal of paperwork to be completed. You can reach Mr. Senti at (715) 273-3904
ext. 2205 or [email protected].
