The GMAT exam is owned by the Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC). We develop and deliver the exam with the help of our test delivery partners. Together we have established terms and conditions including testing policies and procedures, to enhance the test environment and the validity and the security of the GMAT exam.
Read the applicable GMAT™ Exam Policies and Procedures below prior to registering for either test center or online delivery of the exam.
We are transitioning test delivery service providers for the GMAT exam delivered online. As a result, we have updated the GMAT Exam Policies and Procedures and have two versions available on this page during the transition period. Please pay careful attention to ensure that you are reviewing the version that applies to you. Based on the date on which you are planning to schedule your exam appointment, please review the applicable GMAT Exam Policies and Procedures.
If you are scheduling an exam appointment on a date prior to July 7, 2025, please review these GMAT Exam Policies and Procedures.
If you are scheduling an exam appointment on a date on or after July 7, 2025, please review these GMAT Exam Policies and Procedures.
You will be asked to agree to all terms and conditions before your exam begins. Pay particular attention to the identification requirements that must be verified prior to taking your exam. Candidates are advised to review this information regularly as it is updated periodically. Candidates are solely responsible for confirming the test and admissions requirements of all schools and programs to which they may be interested in applying prior to registering for the GMAT exam.
