When should I expect to receive my scores?
 

  Scores are released by the AICPA to NASBA in two waves each testing window. The first wave is typically in the middle of the second month of the testing window. All scores are released by the AICPA by the first week of the next window.
 

  Score reporting in waves means that candidates who test in the first month of a testing window MAY qualify for an earlier release of scores, depending on the examination content administered to them, the examination volume and the distribution of examinees within the testing window. Given these factors, it is impossible to tell in advance which candidates and how many will qualify for early score release.
 

  After the AICPA releases scores to NASBA, they are forwarded to boards of accountancy for approval and release to candidates. Boards of accountancy determine the actual score release schedule. Candidates should note, however, that all scores may not be released at the same time. Additionally, candidates who test on the same day may receive scores at different times due to differences in necessary quality control procedures.
