Schools Returning with Split Shipment

Schools should return exams as soon as possible after testing for a given exam administration (e.g., regularly scheduled or late testing) is completed so that students’ exams can be processed and scored on time. Late return shipments can result in delays in student scores.

Schools that ordered 150 or more regularly scheduled paper and/or hybrid digital AP Exams will return their exam materials following the split shipment instructions. Eligible schools will receive split shipment instructions and Week 1 labels in the spring. These instructions will be sent separately from the exam shipments.
