Landscape Architects Registration by Exam
Texas applicants must process their records through the Council of Landscape Architectural Examination Boards (CLARB) (703) 818-1300. When an applicant has met the qualifications to take the LARE he or she should request that his or her CLARB file be transferred to the Texas Board.

TBAE will notify the candidate when his or her file has been received and whether or not he or she is qualified to sit for the LARE. If so, further instructions will be provided for submitting an application and paying the application fee. The applicant can choose to do this online by logging in to his or her personal account, or offline by mailing the application and payment to TBAE.
- Applicants who choose to apply and pay the application fee online should create an account and complete the application. The fee can be paid with electronic check, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express credit cards.
- Applicants who choose to apply offline can download the Application or request that TBAE mail the application to them.
Rule 3.25(a): A properly submitted application for registration by examination will be effective for three years from the date it is received by the Board. After three years, the Board may require the Applicant or Candidate to update the application or reapply.
