Are You Taking the Fall 2025 CNSC Exam?

Join the Edge Nutrition Support Cohort!

I’m thrilled to share that over 100 students are using my CNSC Exam Study Guide to prepare for the Fall 2025 testing window 🎉

You can register for the CNSC Exam if you are an RD (registered dietitian), RN (registered nurse) MD (doctor of medicine), DO (doctor of osteopathy), pharmacist, or AP (advanced practice provider). You will have to verify your credential upon registration. You then apply, and pay a fee ($350 if you are an ASPEN member, $460 if not).

• Application Deadline: August 20, 2025

Scheduling Your Exam

⚠️  Avoid Remote Proctoring
One of my students experienced technical issues with the remote proctored exam last Spring. I strongly recommend scheduling an in-person testing appointment to avoid complications.
