Prometric Is Taking a Snow Day in the Northeast

In case you're wondering why you can't purchase a single loaf of bread or gallon of milk in all of the northeast, it's because thar be a storm a'brewin!

This also means that your CPA exam journey may be delayed slightly due to circumstances outside your control, which should not be confused with circumstances under your control like blowing off studying for Netflix binging or reorganization of your junk drawer.

Now, you can freak out and curse climate change, or you can enjoy your snow day and jump right back on the testing wagon when Prometric reopens again. Assuming, of course, that the testing center isn't buried under an avalanche.

If your testing center will be closed today, Prometric should have emailed you. If they didn't or if you're too lazy to check your email, here are the affected centers:

Generally when this happens — which is does, weather being something none of us except the Illuminati operatives running H.A.A.R.P. have control over — the testing window gets extended to allow time to reschedule exams. So relax, you have plenty of time to get this over with when the skies clear.

Be safe out there, all. The exam will be there waiting for you when the storm has passed!
