*Score reports for the tests listed below will be delayed due to activities involved in setting the passing standards for these tests.
Therefore, score reports for these tests will not be available until late fall 2009. Emergency registration fees will not be waived for examinees who receive delayed scores during the emergency registration period for the November test date and then choose to register for that test date. Also, examinees who register for the November test date before receiving their scores and later learn that they passed the test at the September administration will not receive refunds for any testing fees paid.
