The complimentary subscription is designed to give the greatest help to our users whose exam careers were most directly and disruptively impacted by the changes. If you had a subscription that is currently expired or were not registered for a postponed exam, you aren't eligible for a free subscription.
Study!
One of the most significant things you can exercise direct control over your life during these uncertain times is sticking to your study plan!
As Coach Dave said in his email to our active users, while this is disruptive to all of us, this is an obstacle we can overcome. Stay the course. Keep studying.

In an effort to mitigate the inconvenience caused to SOA candidates by the closing of the Prometric exam locations in the U.S. and Canada from March 18 through the end of April 2020, the SOA has reached an agreement with Prometric to add an additional short registration window and administration window for Exam FM in May 2020.
Prometric has determined that SOA exams are classified as essential. As such, exams will be held as scheduled in May. For CA exams, this means that SRM and P will still go off as scheduled. There is also a special FM sitting in May 2020 that you can read about above.
There are a few very important notes on this, however. Additionally, all exam takers should review the SOA COVID Exam Guidelines to best understand their situation.
The CAS has announced that all Spring exams are cancelled. The next sitting of MAS-I will be on October 22, 2020.

As with the other exams postponed thus far, if you were scheduled to take MAS-I, we are providing a complimentary subscription that matches your currently active subscription for you to use at any time between now and the next exam sitting. You will need to contact support in order for this to take effect.
