b. Eligible AP subjects: All AP subjects except AP Capstone (Seminar and Research)
AP Capstone: For teachers who are planning to attend the AP Capstone summer professional development event.

Please Note: If you are awarded an APSI Scholarship from College Board, you will need to choose that payment method during registration and then forward the award letter from College Board to apsi-registration@ualr.edu. (You would receive notification of your award sometime between March 22 and April 30.)
Another Note: The College Board Scholarship is not the same thing as the ADE grant funds for Arkansas Public and Charter School teachers. There is no application for the ADE grant funds. If you are unsure about which one you should be using please contact Lori Delk at ladelk@ualr.edu.
