CNOR Exam Deadlines and Fees

Deadlines

CCI offers monthly testing and application deadlines to meet the needs of busy perioperative nurses.  

You select the month in which you want to take the CNOR exam.  Once your application has been approved, you will be able to schedule a date, time, and location that are convenient for you.  The CNOR exam is offered Monday through Saturday except major holidays. You may schedule your testing date any time during the three months after the month of your application.  For instance, if you apply in January, then you may test any time during February, March or April.

Exam Fees

The regular CNOR exam fee is $375 or $295 for AORN members.

You must pay the fee at the time you submit your application. We accept check or credit card for payment. Learn more about our fees including discounts for groups and Veterans Affairs (VA) or Department of Defense (DOD) nurses.
