In collaboration with the College Board and with funding from the U.S. Department of Education and the National Security Education Program, an AP Russian Language and Culture course and exam is under development through the American Council of Teachers of Russian (ACTR). The timeline for this course is currently under review.

According to College Board, the course and the exam will most likely be available during the 2007-2008 school year. The AP Course Audit for that year is already available for teachers to review.

AP Russian Language is planned to be equivalent to a second-year college-level Russian language course. Students enrolling in AP Russian Language and Culture are typically in their fourth or fifth year of language study, or have had equivalent experience with the language.
