AICP Application & Planning Experience Guide

Get Accepted on the First Try.

The AICP application isn't just paperwork — it's your first test. And most planners struggle with it not because they lack experience, but because they don't know how to present it.

This guide changes that. We break down every eligibility criterion so you know exactly what the APA is looking for and how to give it to them. You'll get insider tips from our own first-try acceptance, including real feedback from FAICP reviewers, so you can choose the right project examples and write responses that check every box.

Your order includes two resources:

• The Application Guide — expert advice, real-world tips, and a clear roadmap through every section
• The Worksheet — a step-by-step tool to organize and format your responses strategically

Skip the guesswork. Apply with confidence. Get accepted the first time.
