The August 2026 CFA exam window is officially underway. Level III testing runs August 13–17, Level I follows August 18–24, and Level II wraps up August 25–29. If you're sitting this window, the rescheduling deadline (Aug 3) has passed, so your appointment is locked in — now it's about logistics. Log into your candidate portal to reconfirm your exact date, time, and test-center address, and make sure the first and last name on your travel ID (passport for most centers) exactly matches your registration. Arrive 30–60 minutes early, bring your approved calculator (BA II Plus or HP 12C), and leave prohibited items in the car or locker.
Results won't be instant: CFA Institute releases scores 5–9 weeks after the window closes, so August candidates should expect emails and portal results around late September into mid-October. Watch your inbox and the results page.
