AP Course Application

Instructions 

Students wishing to take AP courses are required to complete the application below for each course enrollment. Please let your PEC know that you would like to take an AP course. Applications must be completed 2 weeks prior to the end of the enrollment window to allow time for review, approval, & processing of the AP Application. 

 

Upon approval, students will receive an email with the Acknowledgement and Acceptance of AP Terms for electronic signature. Once the form has been initialed and signed by both the student and parent/guardian, students will receive login credentials and information on any additional required materials.

Please list any & all high school courses that would be pre-requisites to this particular AP course (i.e., any courses that would be relevant to this particular course)—you must also list the school where this course was taken, your instructor, & your final grade in this course:

Course #1

  1. Use your best grammar, spelling, research techniques (documentation), and writing skills, as they will be assessed in this essay.
