Important Things to
Remember When Registering
-
Register early. Test centers fill up quickly.
-
Take the test as soon as possible so your scores will be received by the
college or university of your choice in time to be considered with your
application.
-
When registering, be sure that the spelling of your name matches the
name printed on the identification document(s) you will present at the
test center. If this information does not match, you will not be
permitted to test and your test fee will be forfeited. See Identification
Requirements.
-
Information regarding test center availability is subject to
change. The most current information regarding test centers,
dates, and other registration information is available in the GRE®
online registration system for the computer-based
General Test and the paper-based
General Test. Although you will be asked to select a desired test
date and test center during the registration process, your testing
information will not be confirmed until your registration has been
processed. You should receive your admission ticket about three weeks
after you register. If you do not receive your admission ticket at least
10 days before the test date, please contact ETS® immediately to confirm
your test center assignment.
-
Late registration is available if you register
online. Late registration closes one week after the regular
registration date. The fee is $25.
Repeating the General Test
-
It may be to your advantage to take the GRE® General Test more than once
if you think that the scores you obtained do not reflect your true
abilities. If your scores seem unusually low in comparison with other
indicators of your preparedness for graduate studies, you may want to
consider taking the test again. Those considering repeating a test
should be aware that large score increases are unusual, and for some
test takers scores will go down. Keep in mind that score reports will
include test results obtained within the past five-year period.
-
You may take the General Test (computer-based and/or paper-based) only
once per calendar month and no more than five times within any 12-month
period. This applies even if you canceled your scores on a test taken
previously.
