Payment Methods

The fees for Internet and telephone services, including registration, are payable only by credit card (VISA or MasterCard only) or a debit or check card that carries the VISA or MasterCard logo and that can be used without the entry of a personal identification number (PIN). The merchant name that will appear on your credit card statement is "Eval Systems Test Fee."

The fees for registration by U.S. mail and other services requested by mail ("Additional Service Fees" in the table above) must be paid by cashier’s check or money order; personal checks are not accepted. Cashier’s checks and money orders should be made payable to National Evaluation Systems in U.S. dollars. Please write the last five digits of your social security number on your payment. Do not send cash.

Payment Policies

If you register to take the same test on multiple test dates and pass the test on the first test date, you will not be issued a refund for your additional registrations on the basis of your passing performance.

If, for any reason, your payment for a test date or test service does not clear (for example, if you dispute a credit card charge), you will have an outstanding balance with Evaluation Systems. In this case:

you will be assessed an additional fee to cover the processing required to clear your account;
you will not be allowed to register for future test dates until your balance, which includes the additional fee, is paid in full;
you must make your payment to clear your account by cashier’s check or money order only, unless you are making a subsequent credit card payment for additional services, in which case your credit card will be billed for both the outstanding balance and the additional requested services.

If you have any outstanding balance owed by you to Evaluation Systems 14 calendar days after a test administration for which you were registered, all of your scores for that test date will be permanently voided and will not be reported to you, to the OCTP, or to any institutions. It is your responsibility to ensure that your account with Evaluation Systems is paid in full and all payments have cleared by this deadline. Any payment received later than 14 calendar days after the test date will be used to clear your account but will not alter the permanent voiding of your scores. You may wish to call Evaluation Systems prior to this deadline to confirm that your payment has been received and your account is clear.

The following additional policies apply to you when you have an outstanding balance with Evaluation Systems:

If you attempt to pay for any further services by credit card, your credit card will be billed for the amount of all services you have requested, as well as the outstanding balance owed. You agree to pay for all such services and outstanding balances in the event your credit card company does not.
If you attempt to pay for any further services by cashier’s check or money order, any payments received will be applied first to your outstanding debt, with any excess applied to the requested services.
Any credits or refunds for which you may be eligible will be applied first to your outstanding debt, with any excess to be returned to you.

Testing on Consecutive Test Dates

If the score report date for a test date is on or after the regular registration deadline for the next test date (as it is for the September 2008 and May 2009 test dates), there is a provision for examinees who plan to retake the same test or tests on the next consecutive test date (i.e., on the November 2008 or July 2009 test date). Late registration fee waivers will be granted for examinees who do not pass one or more tests and wish to register for the same test or tests for the next test date. The late registration fee waiver is valid only during the late registration period for the next test date and is valid only for tests previously taken and not passed. Fee waivers are not granted during the emergency registration period. This is true even for examinees whose scores for the September administration were delayed due to activities involved in setting the passing standards for new or redeveloped tests (see “Test Dates” for additional information).

If you are registering on the Internet, submit your registration by the late registration deadline. Your status as a consecutive test date retaker will be confirmed and your late registration fee will be waived.
If you are registering by U.S. mail, send your completed registration form and pay only the regular registration and test fees. Do not fill in the late registration fee oval on the registration form and do not include the late registration fee in your payment. Your registration materials must be received by the late registration deadline. When your registration is processed, your status as a consecutive test date retaker will be confirmed and your late registration fee will be waived.

If you register by mail during the late registration period, are not eligible for a late registration fee waiver, and do not include the late registration fee in addition to the regular registration and test fees, your registration materials will be returned unprocessed. This may cause you to incur additional registration costs or a delay in your test date.

If you plan to register for consecutive test dates and require alternative testing arrangements, please call (866) 565-4893 or (413) 256-2879 as soon as possible to discuss your request for alternative testing arrangements. This is necessary to allow the maximum amount of time to process your request. Because of time and logistical issues, it may not be possible to grant some requests for alternative testing arrangements made by individuals who register after the regular registration deadline.
