Interns who enrolled prior to 09/01/2023 AND have NOT registered for a test with Pearson will have their previously approved tests reverted to 'Eligible' status in Prince.  These interns must complete their test prep following procedures we already have in place in order to gain approval for their exam(s).  


If the intern passes their test on the first attempt before 1/31/2024, they will receive $125 deducted from their program fees.
