Score Reports

Approximately four weeks after test administration, each examinee and the examinee's institution of enrollment receive score reports containing a summary of scores and a guide to score interpretation. Score reports and passing status are not released over the phone or via email or FAX. Scores reflect the degree to which the examinee has mastered the specific skills addressed by College BASE.

The School of Education is unable to provide you with an official score report. You must request your score report by following the process linked below.

Score Expiration

According to policy established by the State Board of Education, students have two years from the semester when they first pass part(s) of College BASE to achieve passing status in all five parts. Students who do not complete the College BASE requirement within two years lose their passing status in all areas passed and must retake the entire examination.
