If you are a high school student and you take Advanced Placement (AP) courses, your AP exam scores must be sent to any colleges to which you have decided to apply. AP classes are considered advanced because of the difficulty of the educational content. Because of this, passing an AP exam with a score above a certain level means you will receive college credit for that class and not have to take it during your college career. AP exam scores are automatically sent to all colleges you noted on your exam application. If you decide you want your scores sent to additional colleges, you need to contact AP services.

Instructions

In addition, you must provide your full name, Social Security Number (SSN), date of birth and the four-digit college codes for the schools where you want your scores sent. If you are unsure of the college code, call the college directly to request it from the school secretary or the admissions office.
