Payment Options

Once you have been accepted to a class by the teacher, you have five options for payment:

1. Pay by Check. 

• Register for Courses from each Course Description from "Our Courses" Course Listing.
• After you have added the last item to your cart, Select the  "Mail in Check" button.
• Print two copies of your order, one to mail and one for your records.
• Snail mail it with your check (payable to AP Homeschoolers) to the following address:

  AP Homeschoolers
  105 Richman LN
  Kittanning PA 16201

• Print another copy of the "What's in My Cart?" page for your records.
• Remove all items from your cart.
• Exit the store.

We will send you an email receipt, which includes a PDF receipt, when we process your check. We no longer 'snail mail' any receipts.

2. Pay by Bank Transfer.  You can submit your payment in our store using ACH bank transfer from a US Bank if you pay on or before August 15. (If you pay by credit or debit card instead, our store charges 2.87% of the tuition as a fee.) Here's how you do it:

• Log-in/Sign-up, click on "Our Courses" on the sidebar.
• Register for Courses from each Course Description from "Our Courses" Course Listing.
• After you have added the last item to your cart, Select the  "Bank Transfer" button.
• Check out. You will pay directly from your U.S. bank account to Stripe who will forward the money to us after a few weeks.
• We will send you an email receipt, which includes a PDF receipt, when we process your order. Parents can also access the receipt if they log-in and go to their account.

3.  Pay by Credit Card or Debit Card. You can submit your payment in our store using your credit card or debit card. Our store charges 2.87% of the tuition as a fee if you do so. (That charge is eliminated if you pay by bank-transfer instead!) Here's how you pay by card:

• Log-in/Sign-up, click on "Our Courses" on the sidebar.
• Register for Courses from each Course Description from "Our Courses" Course Listing.
• After you have added the last item to your cart, Select the  "Credit Card" button.
• Check out. You will pay directly from your credit card account to Stripe who will forward the money to us after a few days.

We will send you an email receipt, which includes a PDF receipt, when we process your credit card payment. Parents can also access the receipt if they log-in and go to their account.

4. Tuition Payment Plans in Store. Payment plans (also called Subscriptions) are available in our store for most full year courses if you pay before August 1. You will pay 5 equal monthly payments, the first right away. These plans charge an extra 3.53% fee. If you pay by credit card, instead of bank-transfer, the total fee will be 6.5%.  We will send you an email receipt, which includes a PDF receipt, when we process your payment plan. Parents can also access the receipt if they log-in and go to their account.   

5. Tuition Payment Plans by Check. Here is how it works: The family mails in a *packet* of checks, totaling the whole tuition fee (early bird fee applies if payment is mailed before July 1, 2026) — one check should be dated for the current date, and the rest can be postdated over the following four months, with no check dated later than December 31, 2026. There is a $10 handling fee per course added when payments are made, to be included with the first check to be deposited. Please include a *separate* set of checks for each course. For example, if you are registering for both AP Psychology and AP US History, send in a full series of checks for AP Psychology and a second series of checks made for AP US History. PLEASE PUT THE STUDENT NAME AND THE COURSE TITLE ON EVERY CHECK on the 'memo' line!!! This way our deposits will be accurate-- and we'll save much time in handling your payments. Here's how you do it:

• Register for Courses from each Course Description from "Our Courses" Course Listing. Don't check the checkbox next to "Check here to automatically pay in 5 monthly payments" because you want the full price to go into your cart, not the automatic subscription price (which is only for those who are paying by payments using credit cards or ACH bank transfer).
• After you have added the last item to your cart, Select the "Mail in Check" button.
• Print two copies of the "What's in my Cart" page, one to mail and one for your records. We need the student and parent EMAIL addresses, your phone number, and the student's birthdate (for the student's transcript).
• Fill out five checks for each course, with dates approximately 1 month apart with the first check dated for today. The first check for each course should be for the full price of the course (i.e., the Subtotal if you are only ordering one course) divided by 5 plus $10. The other 4 should be for price divided by 5. No check should be dated after December 31.
• Snail mail your "What's in my Cart" page with your 5 checks for each course (payable to AP Homeschoolers) to the following address:

  AP Homeschoolers
  105 Richman LN
  Kittanning PA 16201

We will send you an email, which includes a PDF receipt, when we process your check. We no longer 'snail mail' any receipts. 

Note: All payments in our store are handled securely by Stripe. We only have access to the last 4-digits of your credit-card or bank-account number.
