Conclusive Guide on GRE Fee Structure

The GRE is one of the most famous graduate admissions tests for candidates interested in pursuing MS or bachelor’s studies abroad. The ETS (Educational Testing Service) GRE is given multiple times throughout the year, and candidates can take the GRE at-home exam from the comfort of their own homes. To take the proctored GRE at home, candidates must have the pre-requisite technical specifications and a test-friendly environment. However, most students are unsure about the GRE fee structure.

The path to your postgraduate program begins with the GMAT or GRE. Taking the GRE is required for programs apart from business management. However, you must pay the GRE fee to schedule your GRE appointment.
