Dear Mr. Packer,

Please find attached the 118,000+ signatures and comments from my Change.org petition, https://www.change.org/p/tell-the-college-board-not-to-add-more-expense-and-stress-for-students-taking-exams  It is clear from the signatures and comments that students, parents, teachers, counselors, AP coordinators and school administrators know that the College Board’s November registration date, $40.00/exam late fee and $40.00/exam cancellation fee beginning next year are not in the best interest of students or schools.

The more than 118,000 admins, AP coordinators, teachers, students and parents are demanding that the College Board:

  • Not to move the AP exam registration deadline to November. It should stay in March.
  • Not to add new $40 late fees and $40 cancellation fees. 
    Not to force students to provide their personal data to the College Board, regardless if they are taking the AP exam or not.
  • The 118,000+ petition signers are expecting a public response on the College Board’s website by May 15, 2019.

Thank you in advance for doing the right thing for students and schools by backing off on these deadlines and fees.

Hopeful,

Jenny Wander
High School Counselor and AP Coordinator
