The Hawaii Real Estate Assessment for Licensure program, is administered by the company PSI Exams under contract with the Hawaii State Real Estate Commission. You can contact PSI at 800-733-9267 or http://www.psiexams.com/.

The exam has two parts. The "Uniform" portion covering general real estate principles and practices and the "State Law" section dealing with specific Hawaii statutes. The exam consists of multiple choice questions only. Each section of the exam is graded separately, and each requires a passing score of 75%. Candidates that fail either portion of the exam may retake the exam and need only retake the part of the exam failed.

Forms and detailed information regarding the State exam will be provided during the course. Your completion certificate is effective for two years from the date of issue, allowing you take the licensing exam anytime during that period.
