ÌýHow to Sign-up Â鶹ÒùÔº in the Student Testing Center

Professors will need to use the to schedule students for exams.Ìý

Â鶹ÒùÔº have been directed to share this form with you should they have an exam request. The purpose behind using this form is to create a dialogue between faculty and students to best discuss how accommodations are used in each classroom.

All instructions of how to use or center, included available times and dates, are included on the form. Please contact the Student Testing Center with any questions or concerns.


ÌýProctorio and Canvas Exams

If you have exams scheduled that utilize Proctorio and/or Canvas, some students with accommodations may not need to use the Student Testing Center.

Â鶹ÒùÔº with 1.5x or 2.0x extended time accommodations can be proctored remotely using Proctorio. As the instructor, you will need to edit their specific time slots so that their exam time is accurately accommodated. This should be done prior to an exam, as exam times cannot be edited once an exam begins in Proctorio.Ìý

Some students may have accommodations that can make the use of Proctorio difficult during an exam (e.g. use of a reader, scribe, frequent breaks, assistive technology, etc.). Â鶹ÒùÔº needing to use the Testing Center for a Proctorio exam will need to be exempted from Proctorio.Ìý.Ìý

In the event that a student cannot use Proctorio for an online course exam, we will work with you directly to find a solution that works best for you and your student.
