​What is the FE Exam?

Main article: FE Exam: What It Is, Who Can Write It, How To Pass

The Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) Exam measures your competency to enter the profession. The exam is also the first of two steps to becoming a licensed professional engineer in the United States.
​
It’s a computer-based exam given any time of the year at most Pearson VUE test centres. It’s a 5 hour and 20 minute exam with 110 multiple choice questions covering most topics of your engineering degree. In the exam, you’re allowed to use an approved calculator and the FE Reference Handbook, which is available free (NCEES | MyNCEES).

​​The exam fees for the Fundamentals of Engineering exam are $175. Many state boards apply an additional application fee as part of the licensing process once you pass the exam.

Most states don’t require those with a EAC-ABET BS degree to submit an application or pay fees before scheduling an exam. The exceptions are the boards of Guam, Massachusetts, Mississippi, New Hampshire, Puerto Rico, South Dakota, the Virgin Islands, and Colorado. 

FE Exam dates

Main article: EIT / FE Exam Dates

The exam is offered every month of the year, Monday to Saturday, excluding holidays.

You’ll have one exam attempt for each testing window (Jan - Mar, Apr - Jun, Jul - Sep, Oct - Dec), with no more than three attempts in a 12-month period.
