If eligibility expires, who should you contact to re-establish eligibility?

• A. The licensing board where you are licensed.
• B. Your NCARB regional office.
• C. Your board of architecture.
• D. The testing center administrator.

Answer: (C)

Eligibility to sit for ARE exams is controlled by the state board that licenses architects in your jurisdiction. When that eligibility expires, re-establishing it is done through that board, not through NCARB or the testing center. The board reviews your status, may require updated documentation or fees, and issues a new eligibility period. Once the board approves, NCARB updates your records so you can schedule exams again.
