How do I schedule my AR real estate salesperson licensing exam?
Before you can schedule your Arkansas real estate salesperson license exam, you first must submit your salesperson application. The Arkansas Real Estate Commission must approve your application before you can take your salesperson exam. Gather your proof of age, course certificate of completion, and FBI fingerprint card. Send in the application with these documents and the $86.25 payable to the AREC. If your application is approved, you should receive a Certificate of Eligibility in five to ten business days.
Once you have that Certificate of Eligibility, you can contact Pearson VUE to schedule your licensing exam. Online scheduling is the quickest way to set your exam appointment. You can also call (501) 683-8010 to set the appointment.
