2024 In-School Digital AP Exams
For the 2024 AP Exam administration, schools in the 48 contiguous states and Washington, D.C. can choose to give either paper or in-school digital exams (or a combination of paper and in-school digital). Review digital exam details.
We plan to work with schools in Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico, as well as schools outside the United States, to gauge interest in a potential pilot of 2024 digital AP Exams. Those schools will receive further information later this fall.
If your school chooses to administer in-school, proctored digital exams in one or more subjects, you should indicate this in AP Registration and Ordering by November 15, 2023. If you’ve indicated digital exams by this date, you’ll be included in readiness activities that begin in early 2024. You can switch students to paper exams after this date, if needed.

The College Board fee reduction amount is increasing to $36 per exam for eligible students. See details about AP Exam fee reductions.
