How to Get Your Real Estate License for Free in Utah

Can I get my Utah Real Estate License for FREE?

If you’re considering a career in real estate, one of the biggest hurdles can be the cost of getting started. That’s why ARTI Academics is such a game-changer—it’s 100% FREE! Now and forever. Whether you’re a complete beginner or already familiar with the industry, this guide will walk you through how to get your real estate license in Utah without the financial burden of tuition fees.

Step 1: Understand the Basic Requirements

Before diving into the process, it’s important to meet the basic qualifications for obtaining a real estate license in Utah. According to the Utah Division of Real Estate, you must:

  • Be at least 18 years old
  • Have a high school diploma or equivalent
  • Possess honesty, integrity, and a good reputation (per Utah Code Annotated 61-2f-203(1)(c))
  • Provide a valid Social Security number

If you meet these criteria, you’re ready to begin your journey to becoming a licensed real estate agent.

Step 2: Complete 120 Hours of Pre-Licensing Education – For Free!

The next major step is to complete 120 hours of approved pre-licensing education at a certified real estate school. Normally, this is where the largest expense comes in. However, ARTI Academics offers this pre-license education completely free. By enrolling in ARTI, you save potentially thousands of dollars and get the quality education needed to succeed in the industry.

Step 3: Pass the Utah Real Estate Sales Agent Exam

Once you’ve completed your 120 hours of education, you’ll need to pass the Utah Real Estate Sales Agent Exam. The exam consists of two parts:

  • Utah-specific portion
  • National portion

The cost of the exam is around $60. This is one of the few expenses you can’t avoid, but with ARTI Academics covering your education, this will likely be your biggest cost. You will sign up for this exam through Pearson Vue.

Step 4: Submit Your License Application

After passing the exam, you’ll have 90 days to submit your application for a real estate license. To do this, you will need to:

  1. Create a UtahID account
  2. Upload the necessary documents (in PDF format)
  3. Pay the associated fees

*You will need your fingerprints taken!

If the exam was taken in Utah and you registered with Pearson Vue to be fingerprinted, when your fingerprints are taken, they will be electronically submitted to the Division. If the exam was taken outside of Utah, or you were unable to have your fingerprints taken at Pearson Vue, you will need to be fingerprinted by a police station or fingerprinting vendor of your choice on two FBI FD-258 fingerprint cards. Both cards will then need to be mailed, parcel delivered, or hand delivered to one of the following addresses:

Mailing Address:
(USPS)
Utah Division of Real Estate
P.O. Box 146711
Salt Lake City, UT 84114-6711

Parcel Delivery Address:
(FedEx, UPS, Etc.)
Division of Real Estate
2nd Floor
160 East 300 South
Salt Lake City, UT 84111

Hand Delivery Address:
Heber M. Wells Building

Are You Still There

“Are you still there?” Is probably your least favorite question by now. Yeah, it is ours too.

ARTI Academics offers 70+ CE classes, as well as Utah and Nevada Pre-Licensing courses. When students take a class from ARTI Academics, periodically a button pops up asking “are you still there?” If this button does appear, you can tap to dismiss the notice and your class will be resumed.

You may be wondering why this button even exists, as many other students have. This is a requirement put in place by state regulatory agencies. They want to make sure you are paying attention to our awesome real estate school instead of tuning us out. As annoying as the “are you still there?” button may be, we can’t remove this feature.

ARTI Academics is a new model in education. We are focused on academic excellence and real-world training for real estate professionals. Best of all, our classes are 100% free, forever. Since this button isn’t going away, choose to look on the bright side. Sure, you have to click the “are you still there” button, but at least you don’t have to pay for real estate school.

You do not need to physically live in Utah or Nevada to obtain a real estate license in that state. However, our classes are only approved for the state that corresponds with that class. For example, taking the “Nevada Real Estate Sales Agent Pre-Licensing” class is only valid towards obtaining your real estate license in Nevada.

Right now ARTI Academics has been approved for Nevada and Utah.

Current real estate agents and real estate agents whose licenses have expired may qualify for an education waiver from the state. This waiver reduces the number of credit hours you will have to take. You can contact the state in which you are looking to obtain a real estate license to see if this applies to you.

If you have a state-issued education waiver please email an attachment of it to support@artiacademics.com. We will then guide you to a class with the appropriate credit hours.

Yes. All of our classes our FREE for now and forever!
