April 2025 ALU Exam Registration

posted in: Uncategorized | 0

The Academy of Life Underwriting is excited to announce the opening of registration for the April 2025 ALU exams!

The exam will be held virtually on Tuesday, April 15, 2025, from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm, local time.

Important changes:  Whether you are a new or returning student, you will want to make note of some changes we have made in response to feedback from our students:

  • The Anatomy and Physiology (A&P) book is no longer required curriculum for our exams.  While not required nor tested, this remains an excellent resource for underwriters.
  • Exams with a score of 70 and above will pass (students with a score below 70 will not pass).
  • After Exams are scored, letters will be sent to all students that provide a numerical breakdown of how many questions were answered correctly and number of questions tested by chapter.

In order for students to take an ALU exam, they must be able to download the Rosalyn desktop application. Please ensure well ahead of time that you will be able to download the application to your computer. Some companies may block this download. If this is the case, please either contact your company’s IT department to allow it or make arrangements to use a personal computer.
