The College Board offers several awards to select students who take Advanced Placement (AP) exams. The term "award" is perhaps misleading, as no benefit is awarded to the recipient except the title itself.

AP Scholar Designations

Each year, the AP program recognizes students who have performed exceptionally well on AP examinations. Exams are taken in May and awards are usually granted in September. The following designations can be earned:

Note: "All AP exams taken" refers to all AP exams taken. It is not restricted to the year in which the award is issued.

AP International Diploma

The AP program also awards the AP International Diploma for Overseas Study (APID) to students who have applied to colleges outside of the United States that have completed a sequence of AP exams with satisfactory grades. Prior to May 2006, a student had to earn a grade of 3 or better on five or more AP exams in three of the five subject areas shown in the table below, with certain subject area requirements. As of May 2006, the College Board had implemented new requirements for awarding the AP International Diploma.
