What To Expect at the Test Center

Pearson maintains more than 200 professional test centers in the United States. 

At Pearson test centers, you’ll need to:  

  • Show two (2) forms of ID for admission. Both IDs must show your signature, and one ID must be a currently valid, official government-issued photo ID. Examples of acceptable forms of ID include driver's license, passport or state-issued photo ID. Examples of a second acceptable ID are an employee ID, ATM card, school ID or credit card.  
  • Provide a digital signature 
  • Be photographed 
  • Have your palms scanned for authentication 
  • Be screened with a wand that detects any prohibited concealed devices (starting Nov. 2026) 
    • If you have an implanted medical device that’s sensitive to magnets, and prefer not to be scanned, you can request a medical waiver. Call ARRT at 651.687.0048 or 877.560.2778. Choose the option for earning an ARRT credential.

Scheduling, Canceling, and Rescheduling Exam Appointments

  • Appointments can be made by phone or online. (Scheduling online is a two-step process that may involve a brief waiting period. To avoid any delay, schedule by phone.)
  • To schedule online, you must first create an account on the Pearson website:
    • If you already have a Pearson online account, log in using your Pearson username and password. (This is separate from your State.ARRT.org account.)
    • If you do not have a Pearson online account, create one now.
      • When creating your account, you'll need your ARRT ID number and other personal information from your Candidate Status Report. 
      • When you are finished, you'll receive confirmation that your request has been processed. If you provided a valid email address, you'll receive your username and password within one business day and may then proceed to schedule your appointment.
  • Once your exam appointment is scheduled, you'll receive an email appointment confirmation from Pearson. If confirmation is not received within 48 hours, contact Pearson to confirm your appointment, verify the email on file, and request a duplicate appointment confirmation be sent.
  • To reschedule an exam appointment, you must first contact Pearson to cancel the existing appointment at least 24 hours (one business day) prior to the scheduled appointment time. (For example, if Monday is a holiday and you wish to cancel or reschedule an appointment on a Tuesday at 9:30 a.m., you must contact Pearson before 9:30 a.m. on the preceding Friday.
  • If you fail to appear for an appointment, you'll forfeit your examination fee.
