• Make up testing will be done by appointment only and only at the discretion of the chief instructor.
• Students that arrive LATE to testing will NOT be admitted.

• If you do not meet exam requirements you will be contacted via email within 24 hours of the exam. It will then be your decision and responsibility to schedule a make-up test or wait until the next exam date.
• A Students attendance does affect their potential to test. Our check in system tracks attendance throughout a cycle. Students to have “minimum class requirements” per level in order to be eligible to test. These class requirements are based on 1 testing cycle.

Beginner Ranks-20 Classes/Intermediate Ranks-24 Classes/Advanced Ranks-26 Classes/Black Belts-28 Classes/ All candidates 35 classes

In you are not physically attending class there is no realistic way for us to evaluate you and we do not recommend you testing. If you would like to be evaluated please contact our main office and something will be arranged. If you are a candidate or Black belt this will NOT be an option for you.

• There will be no rank ceremony. Students will receive their new ranks in classes starting May 19^th. Black belts and Black belt candidates will receive ranks the day of their exam.
• Tuesday May 18th at 6pm is a meeting for ALL Candidates. This includes new candidates and candidates that did not test from the previous cycle. This is MANDATORY to test for your black belt.

Remember that it’s ok NOT to test! Every student’s progress happens in their own time. Just because we have an exam scheduled does not mean you have to be ready. Preparation for an exam should begin months in advance, not a few weeks before an exam. It is the student’s responsibility to be prepared and know what is on their exam. All curriculum requirements are on our website.
