Why does the license matter? A licensed school has met Massachusetts's rules for instructors, cars and course content. Training from an unlicensed business may not count toward a license, and an insurer may not accept its certificate for a discount.

How to check a Massachusetts driving school's license

In Massachusetts, driving schools are licensed through the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV).

  1. Search Massachusetts’s official driving school list or lookup for the school’s name.
  2. Match the name, address and any license number with what the school gives you.
  3. Ask the school for its license number. A licensed school will tell you right away.

  • What is your state license number, and does it match the state list?
  • Are all of your instructors licensed or certified?
  • What exactly is included: classroom hours, behind-the-wheel hours, road test help?
