Students are required to take exams at specifically scheduled nation-wide times. Early testing is not permitted under any circumstances. Under special approved circumstances, defined by the College Board below, an exam may be administered at a later date using an alternative form of the exam.

Below are the circumstances when late testing is allowed without incurring an additional fee of $40/exam:
· Academic Contest/event

· Disabilities accommodations issue
· Emergency: bomb scare or fire alarm
· Emergency: serious injury, illness or family tragedy
· High school graduation

· Two AP exams scheduled on the same date at the same time
Any other reason will incur an additional $40 fee. Also, as a result of College Board’s updates to its program, no stand-by testing will be permitted.
COLLEGE BOARD BIG FUTURES
As students progress through their high school career, there begins to be a big focus on their future and what that looks like. That future can look very different from one year to the next as students engage in their high school coursework and grow as learners.
Thinking about the future and the many different options/paths available can be a little overwhelming for students and their families. College Board has a resource to help students throughout their high school career. Big Future is a free online resource planning guide that makes this transition from high school to their next step a little easier. With Big Future, students can check out careers of interest and find colleges based on areas of interest as well as ways to pay for college.
Students can not only gain valuable information from accessing the Big Future, they can also enter to win either $500 or $40,000 scholarships through the monthly drawings. Students earn one entry each month for each step they complete on Big Future. In addition, students whose families make less than $60,000 a year have extra chances to win the scholarships. Students are eligible to enter into the scholarship drawings starting in the January of their sophomore year until February of their senior year.
