AP Exams In May 2023
The 2023 AP Exams will be administered in school over two weeks in May 2023: May 1–5 and May 8–12.
Cancelation Fees
In addition, the College Board assesses a cancellation fee for any exams that are not taken in May. For that reason, students who are unable to take the AP exam(s) after their exam has been ordered for any reason are eligible for a partial refund of $67 per exam of their $107 exam fee. Students eligible for a fee reduction would forfeit their $10 deposit to offset this cancellation fee.
