Limited availability, testing is not guaranteed.
Online registration only, payment by credit card or fee waiver.
A fee waiver covers a $116 national test fee only. Any additional fees
must be paid at the time of registration by Visa/Mastercard.
Additional $60 standby fee applies.
2011-12 Standby Registration Fee:
$176 USA/Canada, $285 International Sites.
Limited seating and locations. When you register, check the
number of standby testers registered at your site; a shorter wait list
may improve your chances for being seated for the test.

A standby ticket does not guarantee testing. Registrants will be
admitted to the test based on the sole discretion of the Test Center
Supervisor after all non-standby registrants have been accommodated.
If seats and test books are still available, standby registrants will
then be admitted based on their queue number (assigned at the
time of registration).
Be sure to arrive at the test site early to ensure proper check-in.
Students may not transfer to a different test center on the day of
the test. Students will not be admitted to sites where they are not
registered.
Standby registrants who are not able to test may transfer to a later
test date at no additional charge. Requests must be received by
5:00 pm EST on the Friday following the missed test date.
