Registering for the PANCE

Advance registration is required, along with payment of $425 in order to obtain a scheduling permit, which will spell out the specific start and end dates of your selected three-month window of eligibility period. Once you received the scheduling permit, you may contact any Prometric Testing Center to schedule your actual test date. Visit www.2test.com to schedule your exam date, and for directions to testing centers in your area.

Before choosing your three-month window, you should be aware of several factors that need to be taken into account:

1. The NCCPA requires a 7-day waiting period after graduation from PA school in order to verify your program completion. If this verification of completion is not received from your school, your exam window is withdrawn by the NCCPA.

2. You should allow time after graduating date for the verification process (above) and several additional weeks to assure that you have sufficient room within your window end date to secure a test appointment at the location you select.
