Actuarial Exams

For more information, please visit either the Society of Actuaries or the Casualty Actuarial Society.

The fees for these examinations, for full-time students, are as follows:

Subsidization will be provided only once during the academic year 2012–2013 to a maximum of $200.00 per individual student. (NOTE: This is a change from the subsidization policy of years before 2008.)

No subsidization will be paid for any student registering for more than one examination during any regular examination period.

If you need to pay for a part of the examination fee, you should attach a cheque, made payable to 'The University of Michigan,' to your paper application for your portion of the fee.
