If I wish to withdraw from the exam after I have already paid the fee, do I lose my money?

Candidates who withdraw from an exam 14 or more days before the exam administration begins will be refunded their entire exam fee. Candidates who withdraw less than 14 days before the exam administration begins will be charged $500, but the remainder of their exam fee will be refunded. Candidates who fail to appear for an exam, without verifiable evidence of extenuating circumstances, will forfeit the entire exam fee. Candidates must notify the Board office in writing when withdrawing from an exam. Withdrawal requests are not accepted by phone.
