So, you read my post on Praxis test fees<\/a> or researched on the Praxis website<\/a>. If you need to take the Praxis Core combined test as well as a subject test, you may be looking at somewhere in the neighborhood of $300 for test registration fees. That is a big chunk of change! If you are worried that you may not be able to afford it, you may be eligible for a Praxis test fee waiver.<\/p>\n

Eligibility for a Praxis Test Fee Waiver<\/h2>\n

According to ETS, the service that administers the Praxis, there are four criteria for receiving a test waiver<\/a>. You must:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Be currently receiving financial aid<\/li>\n
  2. Be enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate program (Note: You are ineligible if you have a master\u2019s or a doctoral degree)<\/li>\n
  3. Meet eligibility income guidelines (below)<\/li>\n
  4. Be required to take a Praxis\u00ae test by an authorized score recipient<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    So, if you are a college student required to take the Praxis test<\/a> by your program AND you receive financial aid, there is a good chance you qualify. If that describes you, next check the income requirements provided by ETS:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
    Family Size
    \n(including student)<\/strong><\/td>\n    		Maximum Total
    \nFamily Income<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
    1<\/td>\n$32,090.58<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    2<\/td>\n$37,357.74<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    3<\/td>\n$42,134.58<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    4<\/td>\n$44,731.62<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    5<\/td>\n$48,511.98<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    6<\/td>\n$51,069.42<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    7<\/td>\n$53,651.70<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    8<\/td>\n$56,222.10<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    9<\/td>\n$58,792.50<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    10<\/td>\n$61,346.70<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

     <\/p>\n

    If you are unsure of your family size (e.g., if you live with your parents or with an unmarried partner), then go by your tax return from the most recent year.<\/p>\n

    Applying for a Praxis Test Fee Waiver<\/h2>\n

    In order to apply for a fee waiver, fill out this form<\/a>. The form asks you for some information to assess your eligibility. You can use the fee waiver for up to three tests in one year if you are approved (e.g., the Praxis Core combined test and two subject tests). The form requires an embossed school seal or a notary stamp. You also need to give ample time for your request to be approved. For reference, here are the 2015-16 testing periods and the dates you would need to submit your request:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
    Testing between:<\/td>\nSubmit Fee Waiver Request by:<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    September \u2013 December<\/td>\nAugust 31, 2015<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    January \u2013 March<\/td>\nNovember 25, 2015<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    April \u2013 June<\/td>\nFebruary 10, 2016<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    July \u2013 September<\/td>\nMay 19, 2016<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

    The form should be updated soon with dates for the 2016-17 year.<\/p>\n

    All the information you provide on your fee waiver request form is confidential. When you are finished, mail it to: ETS- The Praxis Series, PO Box 6051, Princeton, NJ 08541-6051.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
