The
process to make application to the state of Florida
for the initial license process is the following:
- Cooke
School recommends that, if at all possible,
as soon as the student decides to take the
sales associate license course or the broker
license course, the student should make application to the state. This can be accomplished by doing it on-line or printing the application out, having it notarized and mailing the application in with a check. The school recommends students make the application on-line because it is faster and the student can attest to the facts without having to have the document notarized, saving time and money. Students can may the application payment on-line by credit card.
- Complete the application as honestly as you know how. DISCLOSE ALL.
- The application
fee to the state of Florida is
$105 for Salesperson and $115 for Broker.
- Your fingerprints need to be
taken at a Pearson VUE Exam Center. Reservations
are necessary for this process. Reservations
can be completed by calling Pearson VUE at 888-274-2020 or making reservations on the Pearson VUE web site and
selecting "Fingerprint Services".
The fee for the fingerprint process is
$56.25 (Pearson VUE $14 and FDLE/FBI $42.25). There are currently 15 Pearson VUE Exam and Fingerprints Centers

Monday through Friday: 8:00 A. M. to 11:00 P. M. EST
Saturday: 8:00 A. M. to 5:00 P. M. EST

- The student needs to bring the Cooke completion certificate to the required course to the exam center not the "wall certificate".
- You must bring two forms of identification
to the center (one must be a photo ID), to gain
access to the examination room.

At
most sites there are two exam scheduled per day.
One in the morning at 8:00 A.M. and one in the
afternoon at 1:00 P.M. Exams are scheduled
Monday through Saturday. There are only a few
locations that do evening exams and Pearson VUE
does not promote it. So if that is necessary,
you will have to ask for it.
