Simple Process to Pay for your AP Exams:
Please follow these steps in order to make sure you are not under or overpaying for tests and to help ensure the process is successful.
1. Verify # of ExamsStudents should log in to their MyAP Classroom (link below) and verify the correct number of exams they are registered for. This may be different than the # of classes they are enrolled in. All students must do this.

2. Access Linq Connect (TTUSD's online payment tool)Linq Connect is accessed via it's own website - no need to login and connect via your Aeries Parent Portal.
https://linqconnect.com/main Many parents have an account already and you should try logging in if so, but since Titan was purchased by Linq, you can also try using the "Forgot my Password" option with the email address used to login in the a Parent Aeries portal. You may not need to re-create your account if that works. If that does not work, you will need to register an account and link a student. Please see the video and instructions below on that. Please have a credit card or debit card ready as this is required when checking out. |
3. Add the # of exams from step 1 on Linq Connect.Once your Linq Connect account is created and you've linked your students, you can add AP Exams from the Store menu. Click the upper left 3 bar menu and select Store. Then Tahoe Truckee USD and that will open up our store. Select AP Exams North Tahoe High from that menu and follow the prompts to fill out the order.
The correct number of exams will need to be added at this step. This should match the number of exams registered for in step 1. Fee amounts will be automatically calculated by the latest data TTUSD has on your family qualifying for the reduced pricing. Important note: paying for more exams than you registered for will NOT sign you up for that exam. It will just make more work having to process refunds. Please help us help you by checking with your child when paying to make sure your payment is accurate. |

Fee Reduced (students on free or reduced lunch program): $20/exam
To receive the reduced fee - you must complete the TTUSD Free or Reduced Lunch program application at least 48 hours before paying for Linq Connect to reflect any reduced price. The TTUSD application is available here and uses the Linq Connect portal to process your meal application.
