A new verified CAWA exam will be ready for candidates in early November. 

Feel free to submit your CAWA application in the meantime — you will be sent instructions on how to begin studying for the exam and updates on the new exam.

The new exam has an updated, streamlined, and much less expensive reference list than the previous CAWA exams.
