Osseo High School's AP Policy

AP EXAM POLICIES AT OSSEO SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL

The following outline will help you understand the AP exam policies and procedures at OSH.

1.  Calculators are allowed for many exams.  Please verify that the calculator you are planning to use is on the approved calculator list for your particular exam at: http://professionals.collegeboard.com/testing/ap/test-day/calculators

2.  ALL exams are scheduled to be held at Osseo Senior High.  This is subject to change pursuant to College Board AP exam options. It is imperative that you check your email to get information on times, locations and any other pertinent items for exams; emails will come from the AP Coordinator via Total Registration.

3.  Any home-schooled student must bring a photo ID to the exam.  If you do not bring an ID, you will not be admitted into the testing room.

3.  When students arrive to take their test, they should bring several #2 pencils, a blue or black ink pen, and an approved calculator. There is no food or beverage allowed in the testing room.

4.  Cell phones and other electronic devices (including headphones, ear buds, AirPods, iPads, cell phones, recording glasses) are not allowed in the testing room.  Please do not bring them with you as they will not be allowed in the testing room.

5.  The Bulletin for AP Students and Parents provides AP basics, getting ready for exam day, getting and sending scores and additional information for families.

6.  Ordering and requesting late exams: After March 1st, late exams outside of a doctor's note will not be granted. Students needing a late exam with a doctor’s note will be subject to additional late fees charged by the College Board. Students who have conflicts due to vacations, activities, or athletic competitions will need to determine whether to take the AP Exam on the assigned day or cancel their exam without a refund. These requests need to be made in person with the CRC. 

Alternate exams may be made available to students who have more than two exams scheduled on one date. 

If you have any questions about AP exams, please contact Michelle Mazanec, AP Coordinator, as soon as possible at mazanecm@district279.org or 763.391.8666.
