Will the DOS waive the 77-hour education requirement in some cases?

​Yes, the New York Department of State may waive the 77-hour pre-license course requirement if you hold a Bachelor's degree with a major or concentration in real estate or are an attorney admitted to the New York State Bar. The DOS may also waive the course requirement if you completed a substantially similar real estate pre-license course in another state. For more information about course waivers, reach out the DOS.
