It can be a nail-biting experience waiting for your CAIA exam results, and even more so if you don’t know when results are announced.
While CAIA Association provides reasonably accurate time guidance of results release, the wait has been longer due to the pandemic’s disruptions.
To be helpful, here are our predicted CAIA exam results dates in advance for 2023 exams.
Knowing when your CAIA exam results are released in advance may help with less anxiety post exams, so you don’t have to be constant high alert about that subject.
Here’s CAIA Association’s official guidance on CAIA exam results dates:
“Level I results are usually released within 5 weeks of the last examination day.
Level II, which includes essays, takes more time. Level II results are generally released within 8 weeks of the last examination day.“

So here are our predicted CAIA exam results dates for 2024 exams:

* predicted CAIA results day
Before the pandemic, CAIA exam results day behaved in a more predictable pattern.
With COVID-19’s disruption, there has been a slight increase to CAIA Association’s guidance on timing of results release. Since 2022, results seem to be announced on Wednesdays which informed our latest predictions.
On results day, candidates will receive an email to log in to CAIA.org.
Once logged in, you’ll need to go to your profile, click on “My Exam Info”, under “Exam History” tab, and check the general exam results which will show either passed, failed or no show.
You can also view your detailed results or Candidate Performance Report by clicking on “Performance Report”.
In your Candidate Performance Report, you do get a rough breakdown of the relative performance level of each topic, even though your pass status is determined by your overall score rather than performance on each topic.
There are 5 ranks of relative performance level provided for each topic: Weakest, Lower, Borderline, Higher, Strongest.
CAIA Association does not release information on passing scores, nor actual scores of candidates.
If you passed your CAIA exams, congratulations!
You can register for the next level (if passed Level 1), or check if you meet the CAIA charterholder requirements if you passed Level 2.
Don’t give up if you’ve failed though! If it fits into your career goals, it’s worth focusing on doing – and sticking to – a study plan and try again.
Candidates with questions about the scoring of their exams can request a score review after receiving their Candidate Performance Report.
This means that the points earned in each part of the exam will be manually checked and matched against the reported score; it does not mean that the questions will be graded again.
The fee for the score review option is US$100. Requests for a score review must be submitted to candidate@caia.org within 30 days of receiving the Candidate Performance Report.
