Confirm the room and arrive early
The official February 2026 CLE instructions tell examinees to report to the school or building assignment before 5:30 a.m. on the first day to verify the room and seat number. Late examinees will not be admitted under that instruction.
Room assignments can be issued by regional office and can carry sitting-specific details. Use the current PRC room-assignment notice for the assigned venue rather than relying on a remembered center.
