How much will it cost me to cancel my GMAT score online?
Canceling your GMAT score online costs 25 US dollars, and you must do it within 72 hours of finishing your exam. If you cancel your score right at the test center immediately after the exam instead, GMAC does not charge you anything for that option.
If you decide your GMAT attempt did not go well, canceling online will cost you 25 US dollars, and you only have a 72 hour window from your exam to do it. Canceling at the test center itself, right after finishing, remains free of charge.
Cost of Canceling Your GMAT Score
| Cancellation Method | Cost | Time Window |
|---|---|---|
| At the test center | Free | Immediately after the exam |
| Online | 25 US dollars | Within 72 hours of the exam |
What Happens if You Do Not Cancel in Time
Once the 72 hour window closes, canceling is no longer an option, and your score becomes part of your permanent record even if you never choose to send it to a school. You can still simply choose not to report it, but the score itself stays on file.
My Advice
Decide whether to cancel while you are still at the test center whenever possible, since that option is free and immediate. Waiting to decide later means paying the online fee and racing the 72 hour deadline instead.
