To be admitted into the examination you must meet the New York State eligibility requirements and have submitted your application and fees for licensure to the New York State Education Department.
If you have already applied for licensure to the New York State Education Department, you will need to submit your scheduling request and correct fee to Scantron by the deadline. Do not wait for confirmation from the New York State Education Department before submitting your application to Scantron, as no prior confirmation is given. The scheduling deadline for the January exam is November 1st. The scheduling deadline for the June exam is April 1st.
IMPORTANT: In order to be admitted to the examination, please be sure that your first and last name in your scheduling request matches your first and last name EXACTLY as it appears on your current, government-issued photo ID with your signature.
Candidates will only be admitted to the test site for which they have been scheduled by Scantron. Candidates who have completed the scheduling process and are deemed eligible by the New York State Education Department will receive an admission letter in their online scheduling account approximately two (2) weeks prior to the exam date.
Please note that seating at your selected site is NOT guaranteed. Candidates will only be admitted to the test site for which they have been scheduled by Scantron.
Please note that all fees paid to Scantron in relation to this examination application are nonrefundable unless the written cancellation request is received at Scantron at least 30 days prior to the examination date; you may email requests to candidatesupport@scantron.com.
