If you believe that you qualify for an AP Exam Fee Reduction and/or Free & Reduced Lunch (FRL) and have not completed an FRL form, please click the link and complete the SPS confidential FRL form online. On the application, there is a section if you would like to share your child’s free or reduced price meal status. Please mark the Advanced Placement Tests box if you would like staff to be notified if you qualify for free or reduced AP Exam fees. Students can also get a hard copy of the form through their school counselor or AP Testing Coordinator.

Non-SPS Students If students live in the Seattle Public Schools (SPS) Attendance Area, but do not attend an SPS high school and would like to register to take an AP Exam, students and families should contact the high school AP Coordinator nearest you. Note: The larger SPS high schools are typically unable to provide AP Exam testing to non-SPS students due to capacity issues that already exist in their school. Non-SPS students may be referred to another school that may be able to provide the exam. For questions about AP Testing for Non-SPS Students, please contact the Advanced Learning Department using the Contact Us form.
