Exam Schedule
Your student can log in to AP Classroom or visit the College Board website to review the 2026 exam schedule.
Morning Exams
Morning exams will begin promptly at 8:00. Please report to your test room at 7:45. Students will be excused periods 1-5 for morning exams.
Afternoon Exams
Afternoon exams will begin at around noon. OHS students should plan to eat A lunch. Students will be excused periods 5-7 for afternoon exams. Note: Afternoon exams will most likely go beyond regular school hours. Students should be prepared to stay for the duration of the testing. Students are NOT permitted to leave early for activities even if they have finished their exam.
Multiple Exams in One Day
If your student is taking two exams in a day, there will be a tight window between the two exams. We recommend bringing lunch and/or a snack to eat between the two exams.
Exam Accommodations
The College Board must approve all accommodations. New requests for Accommodations must be submitted by January 15, 2026. Students who have previously been approved do not need to reapply. Your student can log in to AP Classroom to verify accommodations. Contact your School Counselor if you would like them to submit a request on your behalf.
Extended-time exams will likely go through the lunch periods so students should pack a lunch.
