Missing PPR on AP CSP Exam Day

If a student’s Personalized Project Reference (PPR) is missing because there was a submission error when submitting as final in the AP Digital Portfolio, the student has two options, depending on school policy:  

• The student can be dismissed from the exam so they can work with the AP coordinator to resubmit the PPR and take a late-testing exam.  

OR  

• The student can proceed with taking the exam without the PPR. Inform the student that their written responses won’t count toward their final score. If the student proceeds with taking the exam, the AP coordinator will submit an Incident Report.   

If the student is dismissed from the exam, the following steps should be taken:  

• AP coordinator requests extension for the student on the Progress page of the AP Digital Portfolio  

• Teacher returns PPR to student for them to update  

• Student updates the PPR and submits as final  

• AP coordinator reprints PPR prior to the late-testing exam administration
