美高的AP社会考生如何自行报考AP考试？

最近收到一位美高读书学生的询问，他自己所在的高中不是AP学校，不帮他报考AP，他该如何自行报考？

还有一位学生问，他所在的AP学校不允许他报考某一门AP考试，他该如何校外进行报考？

另外，还有一些Homeschool的学生，也有单独报考AP考试的需求

在这里我们就把自行报考AP的步骤列在这里：

Home Schooled students or students who attend a school that does not offer the AP exam, can still take the exams by arranging to take the exam at a participating school.

自学和非AP学校的学生仍然是可以参加AP考试的！

•First, call AP Services at 888-225-5427 or 1 (212) 632-1780 (International) to get the names and phone numbers of local AP Coordinators. Prepare a list of the exams you plan to take before you make the call so that we can locate the appropriate Coordinators for you. Contact the AP Coordinators identified by AP Services.

首先要拨打888-225-5427 或者1 (212) 632-1780 (如果你在海外)来问到你所在当地的AP协调员的联系方式，在打电话前先要把你想考的科目列出来，这样Collegeboard会给你安排合适的协调员。

When calling Coordinators to arrange testing, make sure to tell them:You are trying to locate a school willing to administer exams to homeschooled students or students from schools that do not offer AP.

当联系当地的协调员时，你必须告诉他，你在选择一个为非AP学校学生和自学学生准备的考点。

•You will use a different school code so your exam score(s) will be reported separately from the school at which you test. (Homeschooled students will use the state home schooled code provided by the Coordinator on the day of the exam; students attending schools will use their school code.)

你将会使用一个和考点的注册号不同的注册号。

Once you locate a school willing to administer the exams, that school's AP Coordinator is responsible for ordering your exam materials, telling you when and where to appear for the exams and collecting your fees. (Please note that the school may elect to charge a higher exam fee in order to offset additional proctoring or administration costs.)

当你已经选择好考点的时候，那个学校的AP协调员会负责你正常考试的考务，包括通知你具体细节和收费（请注意，该校有可能会对你收取额外手续费）

That school must administer the exams for you; they cannot forward the exam material to you or your school for handling.

该考点会对你整场考试进行管理，他们不会把考试材料转送给你或者你的学校来处理。
