ARDMS

Important Testing Center Update: 

• At the test center, you must present two current, valid signature IDs, one of which must be a non-expired government-issued photo ID with  your signature; see the accepted list of IDs here. 
• The name on this application must EXACTLY MATCH the name on both current, valid signature IDs. 
• Jane R. Doe and Jane Rachel Doe DO NOT EXACTLY MATCH. 
• Failure to present two acceptable IDs will prevent your admission to the test center. If this happens, you will be marked absent and you will forfeit the entire examination fee and seat. 
• If the names do not EXACTLY MATCH, update your ARDMS name of record. 

You must wait a minimum of 72 business hours after failing an examination to reapply for the same examination to permit time for your most recent examination scores to be processed.
