Prometric Center Question

    Just a quick question for anyone who has had this issue in the past..

    What happens, if, let’s say.. you scheduled your exam for the last day of the testing window and your Prometric site is closed because of bad weather? Would you have to wait for another testing window or would they extend the testing window for a reasonable period of time (wishful thinking).

    I ask because I live in the Northeast, the weather has been absolutely horrible and I sit on 2/28, so I’d rather be prepared with a back-up plan just in case.

    Thanks in advance!

    I never had that happen but I believe they would extend the time slot for those candidates. I remember in Dec 2013 they entended one week to accomodate a situation but I can't remember the reason.

    FAR - 71, 68, 74, (8/31/14) 78 ✔
    REG - 67, 71, 71, (10/18/14) 78 ✔
    BEC - (11/29/14) 86 ✔
    AUD - 73, (4/4/15) 86 ✔

    I can't believe this is over! 2 years and 3 months..

    Definitely wasn't last year unless I fell asleep, but during 2013:

    “NEWS: Due to the late U.S. Thanksgiving holiday, NASBA, the AICPA and Prometric have decided to extend the Fall 2013 testing window for the Uniform CPA Examination. Testing will now be available globally for an extra week – through Friday, Dec. 6”

    They did not have it in 2014.

    AUD - PASS (63, 71, 74, 74, 83)
    REG - PASS (88)
    FAR - PASS (58, 89)

    hmmm. I might have to call and find out and report back.. Thanksgiving seems more global which is what I experienced in 2013 as well for AUD; snowstorm is more one-off. Thanks s2sylvir!

    They did extend the window in Q4 2014, even though they said they weren't going to. They never announced the extension– people just happened to see slots open up.

    AUD 84 (1/9/14-Wiley books/TB + free materials)
    FAR 83 (5/21/14-the above + NINJA 10 Pt Combo Lite)
    REG 84 (7/9/14-Wiley books/TB + NINJA Audio/FC/Notes)
    BEC 76 (10/5/14-Wiley books/TB + NINJA Audio/FC)
