The test sites are listed according to the general area of the test site location; the test site may not be within the actual city limits.

Register as early as possible to increase your chances of being assigned to a test site within your first-choice area.

The name and address of your site assignment will be listed on your admission ticket.

Due to factors beyond the control of the PESB and Evaluation Systems, the test site locations described in this section cannot be guaranteed. Sites are subject to change in the event of scheduling conflicts. If it becomes necessary to change a test site, every attempt will be made to ensure that the new site is located in the same general area as the one you originally requested.

Out-of-State Test Sites (June only)

Out-of-state testing is available for the June test date only. Out-of-state test sites are offered subject to the requirement that there is a minimum number of examinees per area. Examinees will be notified if a test site selected during registration is not available due to insufficient registration. Examinees are urged to register early, because of space limitations at some of the out-of-state test sites.

During the late registration period, examinees may be able to register for an out-of-state test site, subject to space availability. Registration for out-of-state test sites is not available during the emergency registration period. Out-of-state testing is available at the following five test areas:
