NYSTCE waiver announcement
As of March 7, 2026, the official NYSTCE EAS (201) test page lists 40 selected-response items and 3 constructed-response items, a 2 hour 15 minute testing time inside a 2 hour 30 minute appointment, a 520 passing score, and an $80 fee. The official EAS framework weights the exam heavily toward Diverse Student Populations, English Language Learners, and Students with Disabilities and Other Special Learning Needs, with smaller but important coverage of Teacher Responsibilities and School-Home Relationships. New York also launched a certification-exam waiver process in February 2025, but the NYSTCE EAS test is explicitly not eligible for that waiver.
