What to Do When You Can't Attend Your OET Exam

You’re all set to ace the OET exam. You’ve spent weeks preparing with the best provider of OET review in Davao, and you’re confident that you’ll score high when you take the test. However, the unexpected happens. Something came up, and you can’t sit the exam on the date you scheduled it. Is there anything you can so your OET fee and training won’t go to waste?


OET review Davao

Yes, there is! You can contact OET and withdraw your test application or have your exam date rescheduled. Read on to find out more about these options.

Withdrawing Your Exam Application
The first thing that you need to know about OET withdrawals is that they’re irreversible. So, think twice before you cancel yours. Are you certain that it’s the right decision? If you’re sure, here are the fees and conditions involved in OET’s withdrawal process.

• Withdrawals cover the entire test. You can’t withdraw one or two sub-tests.

• You can get refundable withdrawals if you cancel your test on or before 23:59 of the Sunday prior to your exam date.

• You can withdraw your exam application and get a refund…

o   …up to the application closing date of your exam schedule. Simply log in to your myOET profile, go to the section with your booking, and select “withdraw.” The non-refundable booking fee (AUD 7) and the administration fee (AUD 120) will be deducted from your refund.

o   …after the application closing date and up to a week before your scheduled exam. You can either file your withdrawal through your OET account or get in touch with OET support. The non-refundable booking fee (AUD 7) and the administration fee (AUD 200) will be deducted from your refund.

• You can withdraw your exam application BUT you won’t get a refund on or after the Monday prior to the exam. 

• The processing your withdrawal request may take up to 20 business days. Business days are Monday to Friday.

Consider these conditions before you withdraw your test date. Weigh the pros and cons carefully. Think about the event that made it difficult/impossible for you to take the test, your future commitments, and the possible attrition of your OET review center knowledge if you delay your exam attempt. Withdraw your schedule only if you know that it’s the best decision.

Rescheduling Your Test Date

Like withdrawal, the deferral of OET exam dates has a lot of conditions. Read on to find out what they are.

• Deferrals cover the entire test. You can’t reschedule one or two sub-tests.

• You can defer your exam schedule at any time up until your test date—provided that you have not yet completed the exam day registration process in your OET venue.

• You are required to defer to an upcoming open exam administration date. So, best check future test dates before you reschedule your test.

• You can reschedule your exam application…

o   …up to the application closing date of your exam schedule. Log in to your myOET account and select “defer” in your profile page. Choose the future date you want to take the test in. The administration fee is AUD 120.

o   …after the application closing date and up to the day before your scheduled exam. You can either file your deferral through your OET account or contact OET support. The administration fee is AUD 200.
• There are no refunds for deferrals.
