The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is a computer-based exam. The GRE has a four hour seat time, and a cost of $150.  We recommend making appointments one to two weeks in advance for best testing time selections.  However, registration at least one day in advance is mandatory.  The center accepts checks or money orders (payable to Educational Testing Service), as well as, ETS vouchers, Visa, MasterCard, and American Express.  To make reservations by telephone (304-696-2604), a credit card or voucher is necessary.  Full payment is due when registering. A $50 fee will be charged for rescheduling exams prior to 3 business days.  Rescheduling is not permitted within 3 business days of your appointment.

Combined PPST

The PPST in Mathematics, Reading, and Writing (excluding the essay) contains multiple-choice questions that require selecting or highlighting a response.  The “MARK” tool allows examinees to proceed with testing, and return to a question later.  The linear testing format is consistent with the paper-based examination.
