2. The application is processed, and a confirmation notice of eligibility is sent to the candidate within approximately two weeks. If a confirmation notice is not received within three weeks, the applicant MUST contact ASATT at 414-908-4942 Extension 116 The confirmation of a candidate’s eligibility and acceptance of the application is valid for 90 days.

3. Scantron will send approved candidates a Notice to Schedule (NTS) via email, which will provide a username, password, and any additional information needed to schedule the testing appointment. Approved candidates will select a testing session from a list of available testing centers by geographic location, test date, and available seating. You must submit your test scheduling request at least four business days prior to your preferred test date. Most testing centers will have morning and afternoon testing sessions available. Scantron will do its best to accommodate the requested test site and date. Seats are filled on a first-come, first-served basis, based on test center availability, so it is to your advantage to schedule your test appointment as soon as you receive your NTS.

You will be notified of the exact test location, date, and time via a confirmation email. You must bring your printed email confirmation with you to the test site.
