ID Policy for the Core Academic Skills Assessment (CASA)

You must bring to the test center one piece of current, government-issued identification printed in English, in the name in which you registered, bearing your photograph and signature. Copies will not be accepted.

Acceptable forms of identification include the following:

• Driver's license with photograph and signature
• Passport with photograph and signature
• State identification with photograph and signature (provided by the Department of Motor Vehicles for individuals who do not have a driver's license)
• National identification with photograph and signature
• Military identification with photograph and signature
• Alien Registration Card (green card, permanent resident visa)

A government-issued ID missing a visible signature or that has an embedded signature must be supplemented with an original (no photocopies), valid (unexpired) ID that has at least a matching name and recent recognizable photograph, or a matching name and signature.

Unacceptable forms of identification include draft classification cards, credit cards of any kind, social security cards, student IDs, international driver's licenses, international student IDs, notary-prepared letters or documents, employee identification cards, learner's permits or any temporary identification cards, and automated teller machine (ATM) cards.

If you do not have proper identification at the time of your test, you will be denied admission to the test session. If you are refused admission to the test, for any reason, you will be considered absent and will receive no credit or refund of any kind.

Please note the following:

• Your middle initial in your account at http://casa.starttest.com must match the middle name or initial on your ID.
• If you have a hyphenated last name, one of the following must be true of your name as it appears in your account and on your ID:
  • either both instances must use the complete hyphenated name
  or
  • if one instance only uses one last name, it must be the second last name from the full hyphenated version

If the name on your identification differs from the name in which you are registered, you must bring official, original verification of the change (e.g., original marriage certificate, original court order).

If you have any questions about your identification, please contact Evaluation Systems before the day of the test.
