Testing Services for Currently Enrolled Students

Students Enrolled in Online or Hybrid Classes

• Your instructor may request that you take certain tests/quizzes on site in the testing center.
• These tests will be available during a designated period, with start and end dates and times, per the instructor. Please check your syllabus or other communication from your instructor to be sure of the dates your test will be available.
• Some tests for online and hybrid classes are computer based; others are paper-and-pencil tests.  Your instructor should inform you which type of test you will be taking.
• For computer-based tests, be sure you know your Blackboard login and password.  You should also know where to find the test within your class Blackboard website.
• A valid photo ID is required to test.
• Personal electronic devices are not allowed in the testing center.
• Always allow ample time before the center closes so that you can finish the test.

Students Needing to Take Make-Up Tests

• If you are unable to take a test or quiz in your face-to-face class or during the allotted test window for an online or hybrid class, your instructor may allow you to make up the test at a different time.
• Please verify with your instructor that a make-up test request has been sent to the testing center and verify the deadline by which you must take the test.
• No tests will be administered after the deadline set by an instructor. We will inform your instructor that the test has expired. The instructor may extend the deadline for you. It is your responsibility to communicate with your instructor about the availability of a test.
• A valid photo ID is required to test.
• Personal electronic devices are not allowed in the testing center.
• Always allow ample time before the center closes so that you can finish the test.

• All requests for accommodations must be filed with the disabilities services counselor prior to the beginning of a semester.
• It is the student’s responsibility to provide documentation of an approved accommodation to the instructor. 
• The accommodation should be noted on the test request form that your instructor files with the testing center.
• The testing center offers these accommodations:
  • Kurzweil reader to read tests for you
  • Extended time
  • Reduced distraction environment
  • Paper-pencil versions of the placement tests
