Taking the Advanced Placement exams is an important part of all AP courses. Rouse High School desires that all students take AP exams for the AP classes that they have taken. Scoring well on an AP exam can often earn students college credit for their high school class, saving a significant amount on tuition. For the 2012 AP exams, students at Rouse High School will be registering and paying online. The registration and payment process will take a few minutes and can be completed from any computer with Internet access. The link will be available on the RHS website when the registration period opens.

Here are the important dates for registration:
Mon, Jan 30, 2012 – Mon, Feb 20, 2012: Registration period for a tentative fee of $90* per exam.
