The 90 hours is broken down into two courses; a 60-hour Pre-Licensing course and a 30-hour Advanced course. Students are allowed to take them separately or back to back. Students will be tested on the 60-hour Pre-Licensing course only. The student can take the 60-hour course and state exam and then take the additional 30-hour Advanced course OR the student can take the full 90 hours before taking the state exam. Although the student cannot obtain their Real Estate License before completing the 90 hours, they can take these separately to spread out the expense of the courses.
