5. There may be a long gap between a candidate’s written and oral examinations. We do our best to schedule oral examination on the

No scores will be given by phone to candidates. Results are published under the candidate number, please keep it on hand after the exam
to access your results.
8. The Official Diploma must be collected by the candidate at the examination centre within 4 weeks of notification and with official
proof of identity. Diplomas can be sent by certified mail only upon request, and if the candidate has paid the additional charge for
shipping.

registration form.
10. I understand that exam dates may be subject to alterations or cancellations in cases of force majeure. Due to insufficient number of
candidates or other unforeseen circumstances, the Alliance Française de San Francisco reserves the right to cancel the exam.
