Non-submission or failure to submit the required documents within seven (7) days upon online issuance of NOA shall cause the cancellation of said application for licensure examination;
Original/photocopies of said documentary requirements shall be submitted personally during the initial registration when they passed the licensure examination;
System-generated Seat Plan compared with the NOA will be the basis of the examinee’s identity during the licensure examination.
