➡️ PLEASE NOTE:
All exam dates are set by WSET with the exception of first-time D1 exams. PhillyWine cannot change these dates. D1 resits are only available in October and March.
If you are taking a Diploma exam (any unit) for the first time and are an existing PhillyWine student in that unit, the exam is already included in your tuition.
If you are resitting an exam, you must register for the exam as a resit and pay the corresponding resit fee.
Please register for exams and confirm with PhillyWine that you’ll be attending. Changes or late signups may incur a fee imposed by WSET.
We CANNOT add you to the registration if you miss a signup deadline for an exam with a tasting component (D3, D4, D5)
If you are currently enrolled with PhillyWine in a Diploma class, register for the corresponding exam here. There is no additional cost, but you must register for the exam.
If you are a PhillyWine Diploma student resitting an exam, or a Diploma student from another APP, sign up and pay for exams here.
