Receiving and Submitting Test Scores
Successful completion of required PRAXIS exams are required for recommendation for certification. Passing scores for Kentucky are determined by the Education Professional Standards Board (EPSB). Scores must be received electonically by both EKU and EPSB before recommendation for certification can be processed.
PRAXIS score reports are available via the online ETS "My Praxis Account" and scores will be available online 2-3 weeks after the test date. You will receive an email from ETS when your score report has been posted.
Please note, If you did not code EKU (1200) and/or EPSB (7283) as score recipients when registering for your test(s), you must request an electronic copy be sent to the respective institution/agency at an additional cost. Paper score reports or scores older than 5 years will not be accepted.
