The exams will be administered November 4-6, 2011 at the Chicago O'Hare Marriott Hotel. A complete exam schedule is available detailing the time of each exam.

In order to obtain the reduced rate, please make your hotel reservations by Thursday, October 13, 2011. Flights should be booked into O'Hare International Airport. The hotel is located minutes from the airport and a complimentary shuttle is available.

Although it does not happen frequently, inclement weather can be a problem in November. Please don't book the last flight of the day and watch for developing weather problems. ABVP has adopted a contingency plan in case of emergency.

Your examination ID card should be presented at the time of the examination. A registration desk will be located near the entrance to each exam room. You will sign in and be asked to sign a confidentiality statement prior to sitting for the exam. Several ABVP Diplomates, including Dr. Denny French, Examination Chair will be on-site to assist with the exam process.

The results from the ABVP exam will be posted on a secured page of the ABVP website and listed according to the identification number on your card. The username and password for the web page will be emailed to you when the results are available. You will receive an email notification when the results have been posted on the website. All individuals taking the exam will receive written notification of the results approximately 60 days after the exam.

ABVP cannot reveal test scores over the phone and all candidates must be notified simultaneously. Upon successful completion of all portions of the exam, you become a Diplomate of ABVP. In order to be a Diplomate in good standing, an annual renewal fee must be paid. Diplomates are billed each July for the fee, which is $220.
