Step 2 -- Submit a completed application and fee to the State. The State evaluates applications and determines an applicant's eligibility. The State notifies applicants if they are ineligible. Eligible applicants will receive a Scheduling Form along with their State approval notice.

Step 3 -- Eligible applicants submit the completed Scheduling Form and examination fee to PCS.

Step 4 -- Eligible applicants are scheduled for the next available examination by PCS. PCS will mail eligible applicants an admission packet, approximately 7 days prior to the examination. Admission packets contain an admission card, testing instructions and a site map.

Step 5 -- Take the examination at the assigned location. Failure to take the examination you are assigned to will result in a loss of your examination fees. To schedule for a future examination, you will be required to submit another completed Scheduling Form and examination fee to PCS.

Step 6 -- PCS will mail score notices to examinees and the State within approximately 10 business days after the examination. Unsuccessful candidates must submit another completed Scheduling Form and fee (after 30 days) to schedule for a future examination. Candidates unsuccessful on the examination two times must contact the State to be re-approved.

Step 7 -- The State will continue processing the licensing application of passing examinees.
