Hi All,

I have been searching for the answer to this question and wanted to see if anyone has knowledge over this. I’ve recently read a post that NASBA expiration is usually disclosed as the last day of the month that your score is going to expire.

However, the state board is actually going to count starting the day of the exam that you first passed and go from there, ignoring basically NASBA expiration date. I heard that this is different from state to state and was wondering if anyone has the answer to this for MA, whether I can trust NASBA expiration date or I somehow need to find the date that I took my first exam which I don’t recall at all.

Thanks.

The general rule of thumb that you hear is… Your credit is valid for 18 months from when you TOOK the exam section that you passed. This is what you will hear for all states. When it expires is based on the state boards specifically. Your score notice reflects your state board's timeline. Ask around and have people post their score notices from different states, you will see all sort of different start/end dates (except for those in the same states, those 18 month windows will coincide.) They are all set based on the board's specified timeline.
