Scheduling, Rescheduling, or Canceling Your MPRE Examination

While the MPRE is developed, administered, and graded by the NCBE, Pearson VUE handles the registration process. The scheduling process is detailed below.

Scheduling process

Note that the earlier you register for your MPRE, the more options you'll have for your exam location. Follow these steps to schedule your MPRE exam:

• Log into or create an NCBE Account
• Apply for MPRE test accommodations if necessary
• Select MPRE Registration and follow instructions to request authorization
• Receive an authorization to test email from Pearson VUE within 24 hours
• Search for available testing centers (MPRE is not administered at every Pearson VUE testing center)
• Schedule an appointment to test with Pearson VUE and pay the requisite fees
• Receive confirmation of your exam appointment and payment from Pearson VUE within 48 hours

If you don't receive an email confirmation from Pearson VUE within 24 hours, check your spam folder or contact NCBE MPRE Registration services. You can also contact Pearson VUE for questions concerning testing centers.

Rescheduling Process

Cancellation Process

You may cancel your scheduled exam by calling 888-205-1855 or via your Pearson VUE account at least 48 hours before your scheduled appointment time. You'll receive a refund of $80 but must pay a fee of $25. You cannot transfer your registration to another individual.
