Someone has to validate your application - essentially, check your ID and if you can speak and understand English. That someone is an FASO rep, pilot examiner, Part 141 flight school, or a CFI. It doesn't have to be "your" CFI.

You don’t need to take the exam to get a student certificate. That’s two separate things.
 
I am aware of that. I just want to get it out of the way since i have my aircraft at a private grass strip and will not be able to fly until april at the least.
