If you wish to retake an ILTS test, you must complete the registration process and make the appropriate payment. When you register to retake a test, you must retake the entire test.
Retake policies depend on the test you have taken, and are shown below.
Content-Area Tests (except Gifted Education) | | You must wait 14 days before taking the test again. |
Gifted Education (NES®) Test |
|
You must wait 30 days before taking the test again.
For registrations on or after December 5, 2023, candidates who have taken the same National Evaluation Series™ test with the same test code three times and have not yet passed will be able to reregister for the same test at no cost.
Please note the following:
- Any test registration or administration prior to December 5, 2023, will not count toward a free retake.
- You do not need to use a voucher or any special code; the system will automatically allow eligible candidates to reregister for free.
- You may register for free up to 12 months after the release of your most recent score report for the test.
- If you are absent from your test appointment, the absence will not count toward one of the three attempts.
