What to Bring to Examination Center
When you arrive at the examination center, you must present a drivers license with photo and signature or state identification card with photo and signature, a second personal ID containing your signature and your admission letter to the proctor. Your first and last name on the drivers license/state ID and secondary ID must match your first and last name on the admission letter. Your identification must be valid (not expired) or it will not be accepted.
If you appear without a driver's license with photo or state ID with photo or the first and last names do not match, you will not be permitted to take the examination and you will be required to reapply with a full fee for another examination period.
Your photograph will be taken at the test center and you will also be fingerprinted. This is a standard procedure at all Pearson Professional Centers. You will be given a checklist of rules to read. Another fingerprint will be taken before you are seated in the examination room and if you leave the room at any time during your examination.
Only non-programmable calculators (excluding cell phones) may be brought to the test center. Writing material for calculations will be provided for you by the test center. Do not bring reference books, cell phones, notes or other study materials to the test center.
Cancellation Policy
You will not receive any refund of your application fee nor can it be transferred to another examination period if you do not make an appointment within the three-month examination period, if you cancel your application or if you do not appear for your scheduled appointment. A full fee will be required to reschedule the examination.
Reapplying for examination: If you cancel, do not appear, miss your scheduled appointment date or are determined ineligible, you must submit a full application fee to reapply for examination. Your application in a particular category will remain valid for a period of three years from the date of submission. If you wish to reapply for the same category of examination within this three year time period, a full fee should be submitted along with the following information:
- Name (Maiden name when applicable)
- Social Security Number
- Address
- Date applied
- Date of last examination taken (if applicable)
- Examination category
After three (3) years your application will be withdrawn from our files and it will be necessary for you to submit a new application form with the full fee. You must also meet the current requirements for eligibility in that particular examination category.
Rescheduling Rules
If you wish to reschedule your testing appointment, within the three month period, you must contact Pearson Registration at least one full business day (24 hours) prior to the date and time of the test to reschedule another date within the same three-month period or you may reschedule via the Internet. Scheduling changes must be made and confirmed by direct contact with Pearson registration. If you call within 24 hours (one full business day) of your appointment, you will not be permitted to reschedule and you will be considered a “no show”. You will not receive any refund of your application fee nor can it be transferred to another examination period. A full fee will be required to reapply for another three-month period.
*Leaving a message on voicemail is not sufficient to reschedule your appointment.
