Payment Methods
The fees for Internet and telephone registration must be paid using a credit card (MasterCard or VISA only)
or a debit or check card that carries the MasterCard or VISA logo and that can be used without the entry of a
personal identification number (PIN). Bank cards without a MasterCard or VISA logo cannot be accepted. The
merchant name that will appear on your credit card statement is "Eval Systems Test Fee."
The fees for registration by U.S. mail must be paid
by check or money order. The fees for other services
requested by mail (a score verification and an additional
copy of your test results) must be paid by cashier’s check
or money order. Checks and money orders should be
made payable to Evaluation Systems
in U.S. dollars. Please write the last five digits
of your social security number on your check or money
order. Do not send cash.
If you are applying a voucher toward part of your paper-based
test fee, be sure to enclose the original voucher with
your registration form and payment.
Payment Policies
If you register to take the CBEST on multiple test dates and pass the test on the first test date,
you will not be issued a refund for your additional registrations on the basis of your passing
performance.
If, for any reason, your payment for a test date or test service does not clear (for example,
if your personal check is returned by the bank or if you dispute a credit card charge), you
will have an outstanding balance with Evaluation Systems. In this case
- you will be assessed an additional fee to cover the processing required to clear your account;
- you will not be allowed to register for future test dates until your balance, which includes the additional
fee, is paid in full;
- you must make your payment to clear your account by cashier’s check or money order only, unless you
are making a subsequent credit card payment for additional services, in which case your credit card will
be billed for both the outstanding balance and the additional requested services.
Additionally, if a personal check submitted by you is returned by the bank, you will not be allowed to
make any future payments by personal check.
The following additional policies apply to you when you have an outstanding balance with Evaluation Systems:
- If you attempt to pay for any further services by credit card, your credit card will be billed for the amount
of all services you have requested, as well as the outstanding balance owed. You agree to pay
for all such services and outstanding balances in the event your credit card company does not.
- If you attempt to pay for any further services by check or money order, any payments received will be applied
first to your outstanding debt, with any excess applied to the requested services.
- Any credits or refunds for which you may be eligible will be applied first to your outstanding debt, with
any excess to be returned to you.
