I agree, no show saves you $60, but might be best to contact the ADA in case something has changed recently.

"Testing appointments rescheduled/canceled the same day as test date, failure to appear for a scheduled test or presenting himself/herself more than thirty minutes after the scheduled start time for taking the test will result in a forfeiture of all testing fees and you must submit a new application to test."
 
You can either pay $60 (or more depending on how close to your test date you reschedule) to reschedule your test to a date within 6 months from when you applied for the DAT (to be approved to register for a test date)

Or

Pay the full test fee again.
