Is there a fee for changing testing location?

Does it cost a fee to change the location of your test but not the date? Also, there's one location that's very close to me but it's full so do you think it's a good idea to check the exam locations page once a day just in case it opens up? (Do exam centers that are full usually open up as people change their test dates?)

No, I do not believe that there is a fee to change your testing location. However, either call or double check the AAMC's website just to be sure. From time to time as it gets closer to test date, people actually decide that they are not ready and cancel their test. Therefore, test center location do in fact open up occasionally. Hence, you may get lucky. I would check especially at night. Usually they fill up fast, as soon as someone cancel. Good luck.

Actually I was wrong. There is a $75 rescheduling or location change fee.
