- Students, as well as instructors, register online to have access to all material when the course opens on August 20th, 2019!

Students in high schools where AP Italian is not taught:

1. To be part of an online live class and best prepared for the AP® Italian exam, students may register for one of Wellesley's online live instruction classes, conveniently offered in the evenings and/or Saturdays. These classes are taught in conjunction with the free AP® Italian Language and Culture (2019-2020) course on the edX platform.

Upon completion, students will receive a certificate from Wellesley College with a letter grade that they may present to their high school for registration on their transcript.

2. Students who just want to study on their own for the AP® Italian exam may register for free* on edX to get access to course materials and work independently without access to the live instruction classes.
