Where these figures come from

About these figures: the numbers below come from PRC's official published sources: Professional Regulation Commission | Schedule of Examinations and eServices (https://prc.gov.ph/exam-schedules-menu, retrieved 2026-09-01); Professional Regulation Commission | Frequently Asked Questions (https://prc.gov.ph/prc-frequently-asked-questions, retrieved 2026-09-01). Agencies change fees and rates without notice, so confirm with PRC before you rely on them. Last verified: 2026-09-01.

PRC runs two separate lookups around an examination: the schedule, and the room assignment. This page covers what each does and what sitting the exam costs, and deliberately does not reproduce dates.

Why there are no dates on this page

An examination schedule read on one day is wrong on another. PRC publishes the current and past schedules itself through its Examination Schedule eService, and that is the only source worth trusting for a date.

The two examination lookups

Service What PRC says it does
Examination Schedule View current and past schedules of licensure examinations
Room Assignment Find your examination location and room assignment ahead of your exam schedule

Room assignment is published in advance, which is the useful part: you can plan travel before the day rather than hunting for a building on the morning.

What it costs to sit

Examination Fee
Requiring a baccalaureate degree ₱900.00
Requiring a non-baccalaureate degree ₱600.00
Conditioned ₱450.00
Dental Technician and Hygienist ₱1,000.00
Ocular Pharmacology ₱1,500.00

Application fees run alongside at the same levels: ₱900.00 baccalaureate, ₱600.00 non-baccalaureate, and ₱450.00 for a medical representative or real estate salesperson.

A conditioned examination at ₱450.00 is exactly half the ₱900.00 baccalaureate rate. PRC does not define the term on the pages read for this guide, so this page does not explain what produces one.

Applying from abroad

PRC publishes an Overseas Applicant path under Examination eServices, with its own list of requirements. It also recognises overseas oathtaking as one of six classes of oathtaking, so both ends of the process have a foreign route. The registration guide covers oathtaking.

What this page does not cover

PRC does not publish, on the pages read for this guide, examination dates in a stable form, a release policy or lead time for schedules, eligibility requirements per profession, a refund policy for a missed examination, the definition of a conditioned examination, or the passing mark. None of those are stated here.

The results guide covers what comes after. The portal guide covers all twelve eServices.
