when do ap scores release

AP scores for the 2026 exams start releasing on Monday, July 6, 2026, according to College Board’s AP scores page.

What to expect

• Scores usually roll out gradually, so not everyone sees them at the exact same minute.

• Many students can start checking around early morning, and the rollout may continue through the day.

• If you took a late-testing exam, your score may appear later than the main release.

Where to check

• Log in to your My AP account to view your scores.

• College Board also uses the Score Reporting section for AP score access.

Quick note

The release timing can vary a little by region and by whether the score was from standard or late testing, but July 6 is the official start date for 2026.

TL;DR: AP scores begin releasing July 6, 2026, and they may appear over several hours rather than all at once.
