It depends on if you are a senior or an underclassman:

If you are a senior, they will not see your scores unless you send it to them. The score reports are sent to three parties: you, your school, and the college you designated on the day of the test. So if you didn't put their college code on the test form, no, they will not see your scores.

If you aren't a senior, then they will see your scores if you choose to let them see them when you apply. On most college applications and the common one, there is a spot where they ask you for your AP scores. If you want to list your scores, you can, if you don't, you don't have to.

You can hold one or more AP scores from your score report if you do not want colleges to see them.

For a fee, naturally.

When you do send the report all scores are there unless you request them not to posted. If you send scores after senior year, the college will get the scores in July. Therefore, you'll already be accepted and you won' t have to worry. AP scores are used for placement not for admissions, but of course taking AP classes helps your schedule.
