Score Report Dates
FTCE and FELE test scores are released on Tuesdays after 10:00 p.m. eastern time according to the following schedule:
| Test Description | Score Reports Released* | Unofficial Score Results Provided at the Test Site* |
|---|---|---|
| Tests with ONLY multiple-choice questions | within 4 weeks of the test date | Yes—except as noted below under "Score Report Delays." |
| GK Essay, English 6–12, Middle Grades English 5–9, FELE 3, French K–12, German K–12, Spanish K–12, and Speech 6–12 | within 6 weeks of the test date | No—if you took a test with a performance component, you will receive a "Receipt of Completion." |
* For tests being redeveloped or revised, score reporting will be delayed, and unofficial results will NOT be available at the test site. See "Score Report Delays" below for more information.
Score Report Delays
Periodically, tests must be redeveloped or revised. When the new test forms are administered, the data from these administrations must be reviewed extensively before scores are reported to examinees. This process may have the following effects on score reporting:
- Approximately one week will be added to the score report release timeline indicated above.
- Unofficial score results will NOT be provided at the test site. Examinees will receive a "Receipt of Completion."
