How do I make sure I’m booking my Casper test in the correct admissions cycle?

Updated yesterday

Reserving in the right admissions cycle is essential, scores are valid only for that cycle and fees are non-refundable if the wrong cycle is chosen. Follow these steps:


  1. Confirm your admissions cycle

  • The cycle matches the year you plan to start your program

    • Example: Applying for Fall 2027 → use 2026–2027 cycle

  • Check your program’s official admissions site

    • Some programs (mid-year starts, international) may have exceptions


2. Verify test dates on Dates and Fees

  • Go to the Dates and Fees page in your account

  • Look for:

    • Available test dates

    • Score distribution deadlines

    • Admission cycle

  • ✅ Make sure the dates match the cycle you need before reserving.


3. Check test type and student/application ID requirements

  • Confirm you’ve selected the correct test type for your program

  • Check any ID-specific requirements


4. Only reserve when you’re certain

  • Ensure all of the following:
    ✔ Correct admissions cycle
    ✔ Correct test type
    ✔ Program appears for that cycle


5. Still unsure? Confirm with your program

  • Visit your program’s official admissions website to confirm deadlines and any special requirements.
