We will be contacting candidates by email between 28 October - 10 November asking them to make payment to complete the booking of their seat. There is no obligation to do so if the candidate no longer intends to sit SQE1. This approach will provide earlier confirmation to candidates of their seat and location and will allow them to plan ahead. It will also mean that any seats no longer wanted by candidates can be released allowing other candidates to take them up.
Candidates will receive an email from us once they have been allocated their seat. Candidates will have 48 hours from when they receive the email to make payment for their seat via their candidate account. If payment is not made the seat reservation will be automatically cancelled after this period unless they have advised us that they wish to pay on 11 November (see below).
Those candidates who wish to wait until 11 November to pay should let us know by completing the Seat Reservation form. These candidates will have from 10am on 11 November until 5pm (UK time) on 12 November to pay for their seat, via the SQE candidate account, after which time their seat will be released.
Candidates can use the Seat reservation withdrawal request form to let us know if they no longer want to sit.
Candidates will have the opportunity to choose an alternative date/location, subject to availability, between 10am on 11 November and 5pm on 14 November, via their SQE candidate account. But they must have secured their seat by making payment in order to do so. Candidates will be able cancel their seat with no cancellation fee within 14 days from making their booking.
The process is slightly different for candidates with reasonable adjustments. These candidates will receive an email requesting payment from 11 November. They will also have 48 hours from when they receive the email to make payment for their seat by calling the Candidate Services Team. If payment is not made the seat reservation will be automatically cancelled after this period. Candidates that no longer require their seat can use the Seat reservation withdrawal request form to let us know if they no longer want to sit.
We will email all candidates who submitted a seat reservation form with this information. For help with any questions, please email the Candidate Services Team at enquiries@sqe.sra.org.uk.
