Preparing for Success: Understanding the State Exam Approval Process

Congratulations on taking the first step towards a promising career in real estate! At Rowlett Real Estate School, we are committed to guiding you through your journey to becoming a licensed real estate professional. One of the most common questions we receive from our students is about the timeline for obtaining approval to take the state exam. In this blog post, we’ll delve into the details and clarify the process, ensuring you are well-informed and confident as you embark on this exciting path.

FAQ: How long does it take to be approved for the state exam?

The approval process to take the state exam typically takes anywhere from 2 to 4 weeks. In some cases even sooner. The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) is responsible for processing applications and reserves a maximum of 90 days to complete this procedure. During this time, your application will be thoroughly reviewed, and you will be assessed based on the eligibility criteria set forth by the state.

Upon approval, you will be issued a unique FLREAPP number, which is essential for scheduling the state exam. This number acts as your identification throughout the examination process and must be kept securely until the exam date.

It’s important to note that once you receive approval, it remains valid for 2 years. Additionally, your course completion certificate from Rowlett Real Estate School also holds a 2-year validity. As long as both the approval and certificate are active, you have the opportunity to take the state exam multiple times if needed, giving you the flexibility to approach the examination with confidence and without undue pressure.
