Important considerations about these programs:
- Most Type I programs provide on-site testing. Type I programs that offer a mail-in testing option are identified.
- The addresses and phone numbers listed below are for the programs' headquarters. Many programs offer testing locations throughout the country. Each program will be able to provide you with their testing locations.
