You are not registered to sit for this examination until you have paid the ELSES registration fee.

You will receive a letter from ELSES approximately 21 days prior to the exam giving you information and instructions. This information includes admittance procedures; approved calculators; times and other pertinent details which changes with each exam administration. Please be familiar with the information for the October exam.

 

In the event you are not successful at your exam attempt, the LAPELS board has implemented these policies: 1) If an application is 3 years old or you have 4 unsuccessful attempts, your application must be resubmitted with all information, except transcript. 2) If you have 4 unsuccessful attempts, you will have to interview with a committee of the Board. 3) The Board no longer allows applicants to be proctored unless dispatched on military duty.
