If you are taking the FELE (Subtests 1, 2, and 3) for the first time, you will pay the first- time fee. If you took and did not pass a subtest and want to retake it, you must pay the retake fee for that subtest. Taking any FELE subtest is considered a first-time test, even if you did not take all of the available subtests; you must pay the retake fee for any subtests taken again at a later date. If you have any questions about fees or calculating the total amount you need to pay to register, please call FTCE/FELE Customer Service at 413-256-2893.
