MPRE Paper Application
Applicants are strongly encouraged to use the online registration. Applicants who apply by paper application will not be able to access their Admission Tickets or download their score reports online. Applicants should review the MPRE Information Booklet before completing a paper application.
It is advisable to mail application materials well in advance of the deadline. This will allow time to check on the status of application materials prior to the deadline and, if necessary, to resolve any problems. NCBE cannot be responsible for materials lost in the mail or payments that cannot be processed.
When application materials are received by the MPRE Applications Department, they will be checked to ensure that all the necessary information is present. Complete application materials will be processed and an Admission Ticket will be sent via USPS. If application materials do not include the necessary information, they will be returned with an explanatory letter. Corrected application materials that are resubmitted must still meet the published receipt deadline for the test date requested.
For acknowledgment of receipt of application materials, send a self-addressed, stamped postcard with the completed application materials. The card will be returned when the materials are processed. To ensure receipt of late application materials by the late receipt deadline, applicants may wish to send materials by a traceable courier service.
