2026 AP Exam Dates 

We are pleased to share that, for the 2025–2026 school year, the district has funding to cover AP Exam fees for all students who register for AP Exams. This support reflects our commitment to eliminating barriers and expanding equitable access for students, in alignment with the College Board’s Equity and Access Policy and our district’s core values of equity and achievement.

AP Exams will be administered at schools during the first two full weeks in May. AP coordinators are responsible for notifying students when and where to report for their exams. Early testing, or testing at times other than those published by the College Board, is not permitted under any circumstances. Late testing dates are available for students who cannot test during the first two weeks of May.

AP coordinators at Bellflower High School and Mayfair High School will notify students in November of the deadlines to order AP Exams. Any cancellations or late orders will incur a $40 fee from the College Board.
