Online Courses 1 and 2

The fee for Online Courses 1/CA1 and 2/CA2 includes one attempt at the exam by CBT. No refund for a course is provided once the candidate has accessed the online course. If the candidate decides not to access the online course after payment has been made, the candidate may submit a request for a refund. The request must be submitted to the Customer Success group at The Institutes.

Any candidate who registered for a course exam and subsequently decides not to take the exam may receive a refund for the exam portion of the course fee ($190) only by doing both of the following:

  • Cancel the appointment prior to the third day preceding the exam at the test center, and
  • Submit a refund request to Customer Success group at The Institutes that must arrive prior to the third day preceding the exam.

Exams MAS-I, MAS-II, and 5 through 9

Any candidate who submits an application for Exams MAS-I, MAS-II, or 5 through 9 and subsequently does not write the examination should submit a written request for an examination fee refund. This request must reach the CAS Office by the refund deadline stated in the Examination Schedule. Refund requests may be sent via e-mail to refund@casact.org or by fax to (703) 276-3108. Late requests will not be considered. A $200 administrative fee per examination will be assessed on all refunds.
