Common questions
How long do FE exam results take?
NCEES says results are typically available within 7 to 10 business days for most US jurisdictions. Some international locations take about 8 to 10 weeks.
Do weekends count toward the 7 to 10 business days?
No. Business days skip weekends. This calculator also skips US federal holidays, which is our assumption because NCEES does not publish its holiday calendar.
