About the L.A.R.E.
The Landscape Architect Registration Examination
(L.A.R.E.) is designed to determine whether
applicants for landscape architectural licensure possess
sufficient knowledge, skills and abilities to provide
landscape architectural services without endangering
the health, safety and welfare of the public.
Successful completion of the Landscape Architect Registration
Examination (L.A.R.E.) is required for licensure as
a landscape architect in the 46 U.S. States, one U.S.
Territory and the two Canadian Provinces which license
landscape architects.
The L.A.R.E. is exactly the same in every jurisdiction.
The same exam is administered on the same days and under
the same conditions in every jurisdiction, and all exams
are uniformly graded by CLARB. The L.A.R.E. consists
of five sections: two graphic and three multiple-choice.
Each section receives a pass or fail score independently
from the other sections. All five sections must be passed
prior to licensure.
The L.A.R.E. is administered across the United States
and Canada only on dates established by CLARB. The graphic
sections of the exam are administered by state and provincial
registration boards or by CLARB in regional testing
centers. The multiple-choice sections of the exam are
administered by CLARB using a national system of computer
testing centers.
It is important for applicants to contact the registration
board in the state or province in which they wish to
take the test to determine specific information about
schedule, locations and application deadlines.
For the graphic sections of the L.A.R.E., each jurisdiction
establishes its own deadlines for receiving completed
applications. The following information will give you
some idea about the deadlines and other requirements.
For the multiple-choice sections of the L.A.R.E., CLARB
establishes the deadlines for completion of the online
application. Candidates may check these deadlines on
the CLARB web site. It is often best for candidates
to apply for the multiple choice sections of the L.A.R.E.
as soon as possible in order to make early test center
reservations. Test centers have a limited number of
seats and are filled on a first come, first served basis.
