Registration for the 2026 UA Little Rock Online and Face to Face AP Summer Institute will open November 18, 2025.
Yes, but the sessions cannot take place during the same week.
The College Board grant is available for teachers who are new to an AP subject. The grant application will open in March, and you will find the link here.
Go to your registration confirmation email, click on the “Click here” hot link at the bottom of your registration email. You will be redirected to the online reservation site. The next screen will show your registration information and at the bottom of the page will be 2 buttons – Modify or Cancel. Click on the appropriate button for your change. (NOTE: The cancellation deadline is May 15. After that cancellation fees will apply.) If you are cancelling, answer 2 questions and submit. You will receive an email confirming your changes if you modified or cancelled. APSI staff are not allowed to cancel your registration.
Note: Cancellation fees from May15 to one week prior to the APSI, will be $500.00. If a teacher is registered and is a no show for APSI (not showing up without canceling the registration), or cancels within one week of the start of the APSI, there will be no refund. Cancellation or no show fees will be charged regardless of whether or not the teacher is an Arkansas Public School Teacher.
If you register under one school and then you move to a different school at the end of the school year, the most important thing to do is to make sure that the email address in your College Board account is updated to your personal email so that you will receive all communications. It would also be a good idea to notify us at [email protected] to make us aware of the situation. If this change impacts how you pay for the APSI, be sure to let us know. Remember that the cancellation deadline is May 15, and after that there will be penalties for cancelling.
Attendance will be taken for online and face-to face weeks. The College Board and the Arkansas Department of Education require teachers to attend every session (all 30 hours of instruction) in order to be certified to teach AP. Teachers who have state funding and have to miss part of the institute will need to make arrangements to cover the costs. Individuals who have to miss will receive a reduced number of hours on their certificate for every hour missed. Please refer to the APSI Attendance Policy.
The first 100 Arkansas Public School Teachers will get a discount of $100 for all courses EXCEPT AP Seminar and AP Business. To get the discount, Arkansas teachers will need to be one of the first 100 teachers to register, pay AND attend. The order of eligibility will be based on the date of payment. After teachers have followed through with attending the APSI, the teacher (or the district, if it is paying) will be sent a check for $100.00.
Registration fees for ALL TEACHERS are $750.00 EXCEPT for AP Seminar and AP Business with Personal Finance.
Registration fees for AP Seminar and AP Business for ALL Teachers are $799.00. This price is set by College Board.
The registration fee includes College Board Resources and Special Focus books for AP participants and any course materials to apply to the specific course.
The registration fees for the Online APSIs include access to the Blackboard LMS for the week and technical support.
