New to College?
Read our Complete College Guide →Hi all,
This is just an FYI that it is possible to get the $99 fee for Advanced Placement tests waived. All you have to do is ask. We had 8 of my daughter's test fees waived just by making the request, so we saved almost $800 that way. We have stared doing the same for our son.

Was the request need based or you just simply asked to have it waived? Did you need to provide a reason why or any documentation?

It's supposed to be need based, but there is no definition/threshold. I simply stated that we are paying college tuition and have medical debt, which I could prove if needed. I have never been asked for documentation, but if I make a statement, I know I have to be able to back it up.
