This is why we have a “Just Give Me My Score You Bastards!” tag
Thanks to the tipster who reached out to alert us to this situation.
Apparently eager CPA exam candidates have once again crashed NASBA’s delicate and temperamental system leaving candidates who sat for core sections AUD, REG, and FAR looking for hints of their scores ahead of the July 31 target release day highly disappointed. And they aren’t showing any remorse for having done it either.
The story as relayed by our tipster:
Just wanted to let you know, in case you hadn’t heard, that all of us CPA candidates have managed to crash the NASBA CPA portal as we constantly refresh it in the hope of seeing our exam scores. The official release date is tomorrow, but that usually means a pass/fail indicator would come today. And for all we know it has, but all we can see is “Sorry, the server encountered an internal error.” You’d think NASBA would plan for this when they created such infrequent score release dates. Sigh.
As expected, NASBA’s Twitter is getting reply-bombed. Is this what the kids call a ratio?
In preparation for the score release you will need to set up your CPA Portal account (if you haven’t done so already) to view your score online (unless you receive your score from your board). Click to learn how: https://t.co/TK8LQSCpxT

Let’s hope they get it together by the next core release day of Halloween. We’ll keep you updated on this developing situation.
UPDATE: We were told moments after publication that the system is back up. Whew.
