**Note: We are anticipating a high volume of applicants for the Fall 2024 OSCE. If all applicants cannot be accommodated on Saturday, September 21, 2024, an additional exam date will be added on September 22, 2024. If this happens, family applicants will be randomly assigned to either Saturday or Sunday; please ensure you are available for either exam day. Applicants will be notified by middle of July which exam day they have been assigned to.
Withdrawal policy
A candidate who has applied to take the OSCE, but who then withdraws from the examination
on or before the withdrawal date will be assigned a “did not write” status and is entitled to a 75% refund of the examination fee.
After the withdrawal date there will be no refund granted to candidates who withdraw from or do not complete the OSCE.
