How do I pay for the LA state licensing exam?

No. Before scheduling the Louisiana exam, you have to submit a Salesperson License Application Part A that requires proof of education. Without it, you won’t be approved to take the state exam.

While LREC doesn’t specify a timeline, it does indicate that for all applicants that it won’t accept any education courses older than five years.

PSI administers the LA salesperson pre-license exam. After submitting your Salesperson License Application Part A, the LREC will notify PSI when you are approved to take the exam. PSI will email you when you can schedule your exam. Visit http://www.psiexams.com/ or call (855) 579-4644.

Taking the Louisiana real estate salesperson license exam will cost $85, payable directly to PSI.

You will directly pay PSI, the state’s exam provider, using a credit card. PSI accepts Visa, Mastercard, American Express, or Discover cards. You can also mail a check, money order, or cashier’s check. Payment must be received in advance of the exam.
