A lot of schools don't require official score reports unless you enroll, but check each college's website.

A lot of schools don’t require the official AP scores until after the student enrolls, but if it doesn’t specify, that’s a good question to ask - or just send the report to be safe.

The Common App has instructions specific to each college, so follow their instructions.

When in doubt, we requested the official scores and sent them in before the application deadline.

I know that the AP classroom has the website where you can directly submit your AP scores to colleges. Is that needed during the application process or do you only use that for when you are going to a specific college after the application process. Meaning, is all that we have to do during the application process is say yes to the common app if we want to self-report the AP scores and not have to do anything with the AP classroom website in order for the prospective colleges to get the scores?
