CHANGING YOUR REGISTRATION

If after registering for the RICA Written Examination you wish to modify your registration, you may submit a request on the Internet or send your request to Evaluation Systems by U.S. mail or fax. If you need to correct or update personal information (e.g., your mailing address), you may complete a Registration Information Correction Form at the test site on the day of the test administration.

You may not change or withdraw your registration for the RICA Video Performance Assessment or receive a refund or credit of any kind after registering. If you do not submit your video packets and the balance of the test fee by the final submission deadline of the 2009–2010 program year, you will no longer be registered for the assessment.

The following table describes the types of RICA Written Examination registration changes available, the forms to submit (either on the Internet or by U.S. mail or fax), and the associated deadlines.
