If you are required to do so, please send away your passport booklet after you have taken the test or before you register for the test.

Would I be allowed to take the test if I arrive after the test has started?

Unfortunately not. Late comers will be refused entry and will not be allowed to take the test. It is the test taker’s responsibility to arrive early for their test. We do enforce the 45 minutes early arrival rule before test time schedule for test takers to avoid being late. Test takers would be considered late if they arrived right at the test start time or later and they will need to register and pay again for the new test.

How do I change or cancel my test date?

If you are unable to attend a Test Session for which you are registered, you may request a cancellation of the registration in your CELPIP Account.

If your cancellation request is received by Paragon at least nine (9) calendar days before the date of the Test Session, then Paragon will grant your cancellation request and provide you with a refund of fifty percent (50%) of the fee you paid for the Test Session registration. If your cancellation request is received by Paragon less than nine (9) calendar days before the date of the Test Session, then Paragon will grant your cancellation request and you will not receive any refund of the fee that you paid for the cancelled Test Session registration.

If you would like to transfer your Test Session to another Test Session in your CELPIP Account for the same type of Test to which the original Test Session applied. If your transfer request is received by Paragon at least nine (9) calendar days before the date of the Test Session and Paragon grants your transfer request, then you will be required to pay a transfer fee of $50.00 CAD plus applicable taxes.

If your transfer request is received by Paragon less than nine (9) calendar days before the date of the Test Session contact Paragon’s customer service at 778-327-6854 or info@celpip.ca. Paragon in its discretion may require that you support your transfer request with appropriate documentation (e.g. doctor’s note or evidence of bereavement) confirming the reason for the transfer request in form and content satisfactory to Paragon.

You may register for more than one test session only if all test sessions are at least four (4) calendar days apart from each other. Test session registrations that violate this rule are subject to cancellation by Paragon.

You can find the forms required for this process at here.

Take a free sample test

I had taken other English language proficiency before, and CELPIP was more relatable to me. All of the questions were situations I was familiar with from daily life, and were like conversations I had experienced personally.

- Chrisna D., CELPIP Test Taker

When I took CELPIP, I found it was like speaking English in real life. You speak every day with your boss and with your friends, and the CELPIP Test represents those every-day, real-life language situations.
