What is standby testing?
Standby testing allows you to test without being registered for a test date. If you missed a test date for which you were already registered or registered for a future test date and want to test earlier, try to make a Test Date Change instead. You may submit a registration on test day even if you missed the final registration deadline for a test date. There are some restrictions (e.g., standby testing is not available in all countries) and there is no guarantee you will be admitted to test. Standbys are admitted on a first-come, first-admitted basis and only if there are seats, materials, and staff available after all registered students for that test center and test date have been seated for their test option. To request standby testing, follow these standby instructions.
