What can I do if I haven't received the results within the typical timeline? 

  • Sometimes results emails can go to spam folder. Please, check your spam folder and search email from Exams Napa Valley [email protected]. The email subject includes "Exam Results"  

  • Please ensure that your contact information is up to date in our system and you haven’t opted out from emails. If your email has changed or you are not sure, please send us an email with your name, email addresses you use and the course name and date.

  • If you still don't have the Exam Results, it's possible that there is an unexpected delay with getting them from WSET.  We are happy to follow up with WSET for you if you send us an email [email protected]

  • Remember; you don't need to wait for the results for WSET Level 1 and Level 2 in order to enroll to the next level!

Why is it not possible to get the results faster? 

  • All WSET Exams are graded by WSET Global based in London. This includes any exams taken in-person, which NVWA ships to London for grading.
