upon entering the CFA Program. The registration fee is valid for a
limited time period. Candidates who do not sit for the Level I

continue in the program. Those who do not complete all three
examinations within seven years must also reregister. In addition to
the initial registration fee, CFA candidates are required to pay an
enrollment fee for each examination. See http://www.aimr.org/cfaprogram/feeschedule.html
