Qualifying for the AP with WE Service Recognition

Learn More About AP with WE Service

AP with WE Service is a service-learning AP program available to all AP teachers. In the AP with WE Service program, your teacher guides you in connecting a service topic to what you are learning in your AP course. You’ll then plan and complete a service project.

To earn the recognition, you must:

Investigate and learn about a service topic tied to your AP course.
Plan for and complete a service project (this can be done in teams, as a class, or individually).
Meet expectations on all 4 rubric categories as assessed by your teacher.
Take the AP Exam for the course.

If you qualify for the AP with WE Service Recognition, you or your team may be eligible to apply for the AP with WE Service Scholarship, a scholarship made possible by The Allstate Foundation. Students and teams can be nominated only by their AP with WE teacher.

I participated in AP with WE Service. Why isn’t the AP with WE Service Recognition listed on my score report?

Only students who take the AP Exam in the corresponding AP with WE Service course in the same year earn the recognition. AP with WE Service Recognitions will be awarded later this summer. You will receive an awards notification by email. If you took the exam but didn’t earn the recognition, please contact AP Services at 888-225-5427 (toll free in the United States and Canada) or 212-632-1780.

When will an award be added to my score report if I am waiting for a score to be released in order to qualify for an award?

Some scores take longer to process due to later testing or other circumstances. If a score is not yet available when scores are released, you will be notified when it becomes available and is added to your score report. Any awards you qualify for based on the new score will be added to your score report within 2—3 business days.

How do colleges acknowledge the AP with WE Service recognition?

Colleges and universities make their own determination on how to acknowledge the recognition. We encourage all students to discuss their AP with WE Service participation on their college and university applications.
