Test Sites
he NBCE offers tests at chiropractic colleges throughout the United States and in Canada, England, France and Australia. The NBCE determines test sites based upon applicant distribution and administrative considerations.
Test Site Designations and Changes
Applicants indicate their test site preferences on the application form. Written requests for test site changes will be considered if postmarked up to five weeks prior to the examination administration date. Requests for test site changes must be postmarked on or before February 10, 2012, for a test site change to be considered for the March 2012 examination administration. Applicants must include a fee of $50, payable to the NBCE in guaranteed funds, with their requests for test site changes.
It is the NBCE’s policy to make every attempt to accommodate an applicant’s first test site preference; however, the NBCE reserves the right to determine final test site assignment. If an examinee reports to a test site other than the one assigned, he or she will not be allowed to take the examination. In the event a test site is closed, the NBCE will be responsible only for a refund of the examination fees paid.
