3. Select Sign in / Create Account and create your account.
4. Enter your zip code to see the closest test centers.
5. Choose a test center and an available date and time.
6. Pay the fee for each exam. Each exam has a separate fee.

Scheduling by Phone

Call PSI at (877) 392-6422, Monday through Friday from 4:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., or Saturday and Sunday from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., Pacific Time.

When You Can Schedule

• Only after CSLB accepts your application and refers it for testing. You cannot pre schedule.
• Both exams can be on the same day or on different days.
• Pass both within 18 months of your application being accepted.

Accommodations and Translators

If you need a testing accommodation or an approved translator, wait for CSLB’s approval first. PSI will then contact you, or you can call PSI at (800) 367-1565 ext. 6750. See the CSLB exam in Spanish.

Rescheduling or Cancelling

Cancel or reschedule at least two days (48 hours) before your appointment to keep your fee, using the PSI website or by calling PSI and speaking with a representative. A voicemail or email does not count. If you miss the appointment, arrive late or do not have valid ID, you forfeit the fee.
