U.S. MAIL REGISTRATION

You may register by U.S. mail during the standard registration period only. Please note that the registration deadlines are strictly enforced.

Your registration form and payment must be received at NES no later than 4:00 p.m. mountain time on the standard registration deadline. Registration materials received after the standard registration deadline will be returned to you unprocessed. This may delay your test date or cause you to incur additional registration fees.

Before you register. Before you register, please review the “Registration Checklist” to ensure that you have all the information you need to complete the registration process. Because of laws protecting confidentiality and privacy, only you may register yourself for a test.

If you wish to request alternative testing arrangements, please submit your request and any required documentation by U.S. mail with your registration form, or fax it separately, so that it is received by the standard registration deadline. See “Registering for Alternative Testing Arrangements” for information about how to complete and submit the Alternative Testing Arrangements Request Form.

How to register. To register, complete the registration form by following the instructions listed on the form. The registration form can be ordered on the PLACE Web site by selecting “Print Bulletin and Forms (PDF).”

Enter your name as it appears on your government-issued identification. The registration form is processed by computer; therefore, a photocopied or faxed registration form will not be accepted. After you have provided and checked all the information on the registration form and then signed the form, mail it along with the correct payment in the envelope provided (see “Procedures for U.S. Mail Registration” below). See “Test Dates” for the registration deadlines and score report date(s) associated with each test date.

If you are concerned that you may be mailing your registration materials too close to the standard registration deadline, you may choose to use an expedited delivery service to ensure that your registration materials arrive at NES on time. Contact your U.S. post office or another overnight delivery service for information about the best method for sending your registration materials to ensure on-time delivery to NES. The overnight mailing address is:

PLACE
National Evaluation Systems
300 Venture Way
Hadley, MA 01035

Telephone: (413) 256-2885

Payment. Payment must be made at the time of registration by cashier’s check or money order. See “Test Fees and Payment Policies” for complete information about registration fees and payment policies.

Confirmation. You will receive your admission ticket by U.S. mail after you have been assigned to a specific test site. If you have not received your admission ticket one week before the emergency registration deadline, contact NES.

Notice of Error in Registration

If your registration form is incomplete or illegible or if the correct payment is not enclosed, your registration materials will be returned to you unprocessed with a letter advising you of the error and the deadline by which your corrected materials must be received in order for you to be registered for the administration. This may result in additional registration fees or a delay in your test date, as no corrected registration materials will be accepted after the standard registration deadline. If you receive your unprocessed registration materials after the standard registration deadline, you may still be able to register during the emergency registration period. However, all emergency registration rules, including the registration options and fees, will apply.

Procedures for U.S. Mail Registration

Complete the following steps to register by U.S. mail:

If you are applying a voucher toward your fee, include the original voucher in the envelope with your form and payment. Read “Compliance with Testing Rules” and sign your registration form.

If you are requesting alternative testing arrangements, include the Alternative Testing Arrangements Request Form and all required documentation.
