Become an Advanced Placement (AP) Reader

Would you like the opportunity to earn additional money ($30 per hour) and to apply your knowledge in grading Advanced Placement (AP) exams over the summer? Graduate students and part-time or adjunct faculty may be considered for appointment, as long as they have taught at least one semester of the equivalent course within the past three years. There are no degree requirements.

The Advanced Placement® Program (AP®) Reading is an annual event where AP teachers and college faculty score millions of responses from AP Exams administered to students each May. The Reading takes place the first two and a half weeks of June at four AP Reading sites; we also offer an at-home scoring option for all AP subjects.

Current AP teachers, active college faculty, adjuncts, and graduate student Teaching Assistants are encouraged to apply. Visit https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/professional-learning/become-an-ap-reader for more information on eligibility requirements.

The opportunity to read takes place both online from home and onsite at a designated Reading site (lodging and meals are included).

If you are not currently an AP reader, apply to become one today. You may be eligible to join the Reading pool if you have taught your AP subject, or a higher equivalent (college level), regardless of years of experience.

How You Benefit

Every year AP readers provide us with feedback about their experience participating in the AP Reading. In our latest survey, 99% of readers who responded said that their AP reading experience has had a positive impact on their teaching.

Depending on the AP reader needs for each subject, you may be selected to serve as an AP reader in the first year that you apply, or you may be considered for future AP Readings.

Both College-Level Faculty and High School AP Teachers are invited to apply. To learn more about becoming a reader, visit AP Central. To submit an application, please go to https://apply.raise.team/.
