AP Exam Registration Instructions
Harriton High School
Update: 10/26/26
Dear Harriton AP Students and Parents, Guardians, and Caregivers:
Welcome to AP Exam Registration! Currently, every student who enrolls in an AP class section will be included in College Board's exam roster with an order exam status of "Yes." In order for us to submit the most accurate order possible, the "Order Exam" section in College Board's AP Classroom will change from "Yes" to "No" after 2:00 PM on November 12th for anyone that has not paid for their exams in Total Registration. Students and families should email Dr. Bell from that point forward to get their College Board exam order changed to "Yes."
Students enrolled in AP classes may choose to take the AP test associated with the course in order to receive possible college credit. Students are not required to take an AP exam to receive the AP designation on their transcript. Lower Merion School District shares the exam fee for each test with the student and their family. The student is responsible for paying $55 of the $99 test fee per exam. Orders received after Friday Nov. 13th will incur a $40 per exam late fee.
Below are the two steps to register and pay for an AP Exam. We strongly recommend the student and parent/guardian complete the process together. This will speed up the registration process and ensure that all family members are on the same page. When both the student and parent are present, the entire process can completed in one sitting.
1. STUDENTS: If you did not join your AP class during the first week of school, sign in to https://myap.collegeboard.org/login, and “Join a Class” with the Join Code provided by your teacher at the start of the school year. (You should have already completed this step if your AP teacher provided you with the Join Code, there is no need to do this twice.) There is an instruction sheet at the bottom of this section.
2. STUDENTS and PARENTS: Register and pay for each exam you want to take online on the Total Registration website: https://user.totalregistration.net/AP/394290 by the LATE REGISTRATION DEADLINE 11:59 PM on Friday, March 5, 2027. NOTE: because we use Total Registration for payment, it must close one week earlier than College Board's March 12th late registration deadline. It is essential that you complete the information correctly as it will be automatically generated onto your answer sheet for the exam(s) taken in May 2027. Please use your given name (the one that is in College Board) and make sure the student names and emails match in both College Board and Total Registration. If you use a different name and email in College Board from Total Registration, your information will not match up, and it may cause confusion as we get closer to testing time.
3. For students registering after November 13, you must pay the $40 per exam late fee in Total Registration., and then contact Dr. Bell to get the AP Classroom exam option changed to "yes" so he can order an exam for you in College Board.
If you have any questions, please review the FAQ below first. If you find that you have questions that were not answered by this document, please contact Dr. Bell at bellk@lmsd.org. Thank you for your cooperation!
Sincerely,
Dr. Bell
AP Coordinator
