If you file on or immediately prior to the deadline and there is no time to correct errors or missing information you may not be eligible to sit for the exam.  \nYou should review all instructions in your results letter as well as your previously submitted application and any updates.  \nIf you have not already done so, add “@[ncbex.org](ncbex.org)”, “@[courtswv.gov](courtswv.gov)”, and  \n“@ [westvirginia.ilgexam360.com](westvirginia.ilgexam360.com)” extensions to your email address book and check your “junk” or“spam” folder to make sure you don’t miss any correspondence. Monitor your email address(es) to avoid delays and confirm you are responding promptly, and within deadlines, to all requests.  \nQ. When is the application due?  \nA. Detailed information on filing can be found under the website instructions and in your results letter.  \nQ. What do I need to submit to reapply?  \nA. If you are retaking an exam immediately following a West Virginia exam administration, follow the instructions to reapply as listed on your most recent results letter. Carefully review your previously submitted application, and updates if applicable, and check the applicable changes on the Application Update Form (found under SEVENTH in the Application Instructions at [https://www.courtswv.gov/legal](https://www.courtswv.gov/legal)community/bar-admissions/bar-applications\\#wvbarexam); if you have no changes, don’t check any boxes. Provide an attachment with the detailed change information which must be the same as requested in the original application. You must provide all required attachments as listed on the application (legal proceedings, financial responsibility, military, etc. ), if applicable. If you no longer have these materials, contact the issuing agency and if they no longer have copies of these available to you provide their response in writing. These required attachments must be provided to the WVBLE with your Application Update Form by the filing deadline.  \nIf your results letter is more than a year old, you will want [to contact](to contact melissa.menefee@courtswv.gov)[ ](to contact melissa.menefee@courtswv.gov)[melissa.menefee@courtswv.gov](to contact melissa.menefee@courtswv.gov)[ ](to contact melissa.menefee@courtswv.gov)[regarding the required filing materials.](regarding the required filing materials.)  \nQ. Do I have to fill out a new National Conference of Bar Examiners (NCBE) Character & Fitness application?  \nA. The NCBE character & fitness application you submitted for a prior exam is valid in this jurisdiction for three years from the date in the bottom right-hand corner of the application for application by bar examination. If the application is current, you need only complete the Application Update Form and provide supporting documentation for any changes.  \nQ. How much is the application fee?  \nA. The fee schedule can be found under the Fee Schedule and Other Requests tab on the WVBLE website.  \nIf you are applying for a July exam administration immediately following a February West Virginia exam administration you sat for but did not pass (this does not include withdrawn/no show applications), you do not have to include the late fee for your application postmarked April 2nd through May 1st due to the timing of the February scores release.  \nIf your previously submitted West Virginia NCBE Character Report is less than three years old you do not need to submit additional payment to the NCBE. If the report has expired, you may wait for a successful  \nApril 2024  \nbar examination score to upload your application, and payment, to the NCBE for an updated character and fitness background investigation.  \nThe laptop fee must be paid for each exam administration.  \nQ.
