Starting in 2025, the Core sections of the CPA Exam will return to continuous testing.
Easier to schedule
No more “testing windows.” You now have freedom to decide when you want to sit for a Core CPA Exam section. Other than the few blackout dates the AICPA uses to update the exam, you can schedule for whenever is convenient.
Faster score reporting
Continuous testing allows you to get your scores 1-2 weeks after you take a Core CPA Exam section, as opposed to prior years when scores releases were batched for each window. Candidates used to wait a month or longer to receive their scores.
Better for retakes
Now that candidates receive scores promptly, no one has to spend weeks studying for their next section only to find out they have to retake their last one. Continuous testing allows you to take the exam again in two weeks, while the content is still fresh in your mind.
Take a look at our table to see the Core score release dates for 2025.
Discipline sections are similar to last year and will be administered the first month of each quarter, with it’s score release date being a month or two later. Here are the 2025 Discipline Score Release Dates:
The AICPA published its CPA Exam score release dates for 2024. We’ve gathered the dates here so you can see when you should receive your score after you sit for the exam. Mark it on your calendar!
The AICPA calls the dates NASBA releases scores to boards of accountancy “target dates.” Some boards may require at least one additional day beyond the published target date to process and release scores. This means you may not receive your CPA Exam score on these exact days, but you should expect to have it soon after.
NOTE: Not all boards of accountancy receive their scores via the NASBA website. CA, IL, KY, MD, and ND candidates will receive scores from their board of accountancy’s website. All other states will obtain their scores from the NASBA candidate portalOpens in new window.
CPA Exam candidates can expect scores to release every 3-4 weeks.
We are here to make sure you only need to look forward to four score release dates – one for each section of the CPA Exam.
In fact, we find that candidates who failed with other CPA review courses switch to Gleim when they’re ready to get serious about a passing score on all four parts of the CPA Exam.
