Your Admission Ticket

After your registration has been processed and you have been assigned to a specific test site, you will be sent an admission ticket. You may receive more than one admission ticket, depending on the number of tests for which you have registered. Note that the admission tickets may be sent separately. Take your admission ticket(s) with you to the test site on the day of the test. Your admission to the test site will be delayed if you do not have your admission ticket.

Your admission ticket lists the personal information you provided when registering as well as testing information, including your

• test selection;
  
• CTEL identification (ID) number;
  
• test site;
  
• test date;
  
• reporting time.
  

Check the information on your admission ticket when you receive it. Notify NES immediately if any testing information is inaccurate. You may not change your test session or test selection at the test site.

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.

Retain a copy of your admission ticket for your records. It contains your CTEL ID number, which is required to access your unofficial scores, confirm your registration status, or make changes to your registration on the Internet. Your ID number is unique. For security reasons it cannot be reissued or provided to you upon request by telephone or e-mail.

Confirming Your Registration Status on the Internet

To confirm your registration status, select "Confirm or Modify Registration" on the CTEL Web site and follow the instructions provided. You will be required to provide your CTEL ID number and your date of birth to access your registration information.

The registration status system provides information about all current and future CTEL Examination test dates for which you are registered, including test area information, the subtest(s) for which you are registered, and, if available, information about the specific test site to which you have been assigned and your reporting time(s).
