Can I schedule the NH exam without taking the pre-license course?

No. The New Hampshire Real Estate Commission must approve you to take the state licensing exam. With your registration form, you are required to provide proof of completing the pre-license education.

Your course completion certificate is only valid for six months, so you want to schedule your state licensing exam before your certificate expires. It will take the NH Real Estate Commission some time to approve you to take the exam, so submit your registration form promptly after finishing your course.

Your first step is to submit the exam registration form with your proof of completing the pre-license education and the examination fee. When the NHREC approves your exam eligibility, the state's testing vendor PSI will notify you that you can schedule your exam. PSI recommends to set your exam appointment online.
