International Testing

Applicants looking to schedule an examination outside of the US or Canada should follow the instructions to schedule through the scheduling site. However, should international sites/dates be unavailable at your preferred international location, you may click on the “More International Sites” button to see a full list of sites in our network. Consider locations that you may be traveling to for business or pleasure if you cannot find a location near your home or office. You may then submit three (3) preferred international site/date options. The testing provider cannot guarantee availability of any international site/date during the designated testing period.
 

Changing Your Examination Appointment After It Has Been Scheduled

If you wish to change the date, time or location of an examination that has already been scheduled, and that you wish to take in the same examination window you may do so, though a fee may apply*. To reschedule, please use the link in your scheduling confirmation email. If you have difficulty rescheduling online, you can contact Meazure Learning by telephone at +1 (919) 572 6880. Please note that a fee may apply. A fee of $50 (US) for each change is required, payable to the testing provider.

Changes may not be made less than five business days before your scheduled examination date, and you may only reschedule to another date within the current testing cycle. The exam type may not be changed after the deadline of the exam window; however, you have the option to reschedule to a later exam window for a fee*. You will only be allowed to transfer your exam twice.  For example, if you are registered for Spring 2023 you may transfer to Summer 2023 using one transfer or transfer from Spring to Autumn 2023 using two transfers. After two transfers, you will be required to re-apply to the program and pay the full registration fee.

If you wish to reschedule to another testing window, please contact RAPS' customer service team at +1 (301) 770-2920 ext. 200.
