Is non-Saturday testing available?

Non-Saturday testing is available only for students who cannot test on Saturday because of religious convictions or who live in remote areas. If there is a non-Saturday test center within 50 miles of your home for any test date, register for that date and request that center. If you try to test standby or make a Test Center Change to a Sunday or Monday center, you must bring a letter from your cleric or a notarized statement to verify your religious beliefs prohibit Saturday testing. You will not be admitted to test without it.

If there is not a non-Saturday test center within 50 miles of your home (U.S. or Canada only), or no non-Saturday test centers in your country (in other locations) scheduled on any test date, do not register. Instead, check the requirements for Arranged Testing (PDF; 4 pages, 57KB).

NOTE
  • When you search for a test center online, non-Saturday test dates are underlined in color with a link to information about eligibility for non-Saturday testing.
  • When registering online, you must search specifically for non-Saturday test centers. Only Saturday test centers will appear automatically in your search results.
