National Registry Refund Policy

There will be no refund of site fee for any reason, nor any transfer from one exam date to another. Once you have committed to an exam date, you either show up for the exam or forfeit your site fee. The site fee entitles the candidate to one test only; it does not guarantee that the student will be allowed to re-test. Every reasonable effort will be made to accommodate same day re-tests but we cannot guarantee same day re-testing. For program information contact Wynn Gordy.
