All other students will be required to pay the full price for the exam. To offset the full cost, Taylor ISD will contribute funds to assist with the cost for the 2019 AP exams: • Cost to student with previous instruction for each AP Exam: $50, • Cost to student without previous instruction for each AP Exam: $94, • Cost to student on free/reduced lunch for each AP Exam: $15 . The link to sign up is also on the school website or in the attached letter. Students will pay in the Counselor’s Office. Payment plans are available as needed. All students planning to take an AP Test(s) need to sign up and pay fees by Friday February 1, 2019.
