California Supplemental Examination (CSE)


Eligibility

Prior to taking the CSE, candidates must:

  • Meet California eligibility requirements;
  • Successfully complete all sections of the LARE;
  • Submit a California Supplemental Examination Application, along with the Examination and Application Evaluation Fees payment. Money orders, cashiers checks, or personal checks must be made payable to the LATC.

When the completed application and payment have been processed by the LATC, the candidate’s eligibility information will be sent to the examination vendor, Psychological Services, Incorporated (PSI)-psiexams.com. The CSE Candidate Guide (PDF, 191K) provides information found on this site, as well as PSI-specific information and procedures (i.e., scheduling an examination by telephone or online, reporting to the examination site, acceptable forms of identification, etc.).
