    I have my permit and am currently in truck driver school.

    Can I go to the DMV and take my endorsements tests and get them added to my permit?

    Will they automatically transfer when I receive my CDL A license?

    Yes, get them done before graduating and they'll put them on your cdl.

    Nope. Nope and nope.

    Permit = Childs plaything. Under supervision by adult full CDL of course.

    Test with the DMV and against Homeland/TSA etc for he rest of the endorsements after you pass the basic CDL test (Plural. Skills, Written, vision etc.)

    You must also maintain a valid medical to be certified under Tier one for interstate and intrastate commerce.

    Here in Michigan you can take all the tests, but the Hazmat and doubles/triples won't be added until you have your actual CDL. My permit says that I've passed the test but there's no actual endorsement yet. I took all the tests at the same time.
