Registration Process

Our office is open from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (Central Time Zone) Monday to Friday. Registrations and payments are processed in the order received during normal business hours. However, registrations received after 3:00 p.m. may be processed the next business day. Once processed, you should be able to access your classes within 15 — 20 minutes.

Therefore, if you need immediate access to a course outside of our business hours — to meet an MCE deadline, for example — we urge you to visit the TREC Web page that lists educational providers and find another that better suits your needs: http://www.trec.state.tx.us/education/providers_core.asp.

You can also access a real estate online bookstore (a new browser window will open for this link).

* There are no registration discounts available for any of the Online Texas Real Estate Salesperson courses.

Course Extensions

The original 12-month period may be extended up to 50 percent or six months, whichever is less, to accommodate extenuating circumstances that prevent students from completing courses during the initial 12-month access period. The Texas Real Estate Commission Ethics and Legal Update MCE are updated every two years. Towards the end of each term, the length of time these 3-hour classes are available will be reduced.

If you need more than the original 12 months to complete a course, print and complete the Course Extension form and send it to us via fax at (512) 232-6126 or as a scanned document to pdc@austin.utexas.edu. You may include your payment information on the form or request that we call you for credit card information.
