Candidates that are interested in taking the April 2021 PE exam should apply by December 1, 2020, to allow for time to process and review your application. 

Be sure to check the NCEES website for COVID-related news, which may affect the registration window for the April exam, plans for transitioning to computer-based formats, and details regarding the 1-day regional Civil PE exam administration on January 26, 2021. DAPE is not offering the exam on this date, but will allow applicants to sit for the exam in other locations.

Candidates that are interested in taking the PE exam prior to the completion of your work experience requirement, also known as "Decoupling," should e-mail office@dape.org for further information. You'll need to apply for certification as an Engineer Intern. When your official transcripts are verified, you will be able to register for the exam on the NCEES website. 

Note: any degree that requires an NCEES credentials evaluation must be reviewed by our examining committee, which meets the last Wednesday of each month.
