Are there any penalties for tardiness, late registration or cancellation of an examination?
Candidates who arrive at the test center on the specified scheduled test date more than 15 minutes after the scheduled start time will not be permitted to take the examination under any circumstance and will be penalized the full cost of the examination. There are significant economic penalties for late registration, and for cancellation of a previously scheduled examination 30 days or less from the test date arranged by the candidate. All candidates are advised to check the information available on our website for complete details.
If you arrive at the test center on the scheduled examination date within 30 minutes after the scheduled start time, you will be permitted to take the examination only if the test center is able to deliver the examination in its entirety. If you arrive at the test center on the scheduled examination date more than 30 minutes past the scheduled start time, you run the risk of being designated a “No Show.” You may be permitted to take the examination at the sole discretion of the proctor or testing vendor at the test center, but you will be permitted to take the examination only if the test center is able to deliver it in its entirety. If you are not permitted to take the examination, you will be considered a “No Show” and will be responsible for the “No Show” fee.
