2024 CFA Exam Postponement Methods and Precautions

Mondo Home Updated on 2024-02-02

For those of you who are having trouble preparing for the CFA exam, have you ever considered applying for an extension? Today, let me give you a detailed explanation of the postponement method of the 2024 CFA exam and its precautions.

First of all, we need to understand the two forms of paid extension and emergency extension. Among them, the emergency extension (also known as the free extension) requires the provision of supporting documents. For example, candidates or their immediate family members can apply for an emergency extension if they are suffering from a life-threatening illness, death of an immediate family member, military service, or pregnancy. In addition, candidates can also request an extension if they cannot find a suitable seat after the exam has been rescheduled by Prometric.

An extension may also be requested in standard cases where the candidate or a member of the candidate's immediate family is suffering from a life-threatening illness, the candidate is deceased, the candidate is forced to deploy militarily, the candidate is pregnant, or the candidate is unable to find a new date to schedule after the candidate's exam has been rescheduled by Prometric. In addition, due to the current situation of the global epidemic of COVID-19, the CFA Association has also stipulated some non-standard conditions for postponement. For example, a candidate may also apply for an extension if they have been exposed to a patient who has been diagnosed with COVID-19, if they have been experiencing flu-like symptoms, if they are unable to travel to the test due to personal travel restrictions in their area**, employer, or university, or if a natural disaster has affected the candidate's area and prevents them from taking the test. Finally, students who want to change the CFA seat can follow the following process: go to the official website of the CFA Association, click on the programs, then select the CFA program, click on the locations, click on Change My Test Center, change the seat (must log in), select the city and test time you want to change, and click OK to submit the test seat change information after confirming that the information is correct. Overall, applying for a postponement of a CFA exam is not complicated, as long as the relevant conditions are met and the process is followed. However, we should also note that if the conditions for applying for an extension are not sufficient or if the submitted materials are incomplete, the application may fail. Therefore, when applying for an extension, we must carefully read the relevant regulations and prepare the required materials. Learn CFA to Gordon
