1. Testing services are provided in the Center for Learning located on the main floor (towards the back) of the Osterlin Library. Please see the Center for Learning staff person located at the “check-in/check-out” desk for assistance upon arrival.
2. Tests can be proctored during the hours that the Center for Learning is open but must be completed prior to closing time. Reservations are not required. You may wish to call ahead to verify hours and/or that your test has arrived. The Center for Learning phone number is 995-2134.
3. You must present a photo ID – a driver’s license or student ID. If you do not have a photo ID, the proctor cannot administer the test.
4. You will be required to complete a portion of a test request form – your name, date, instructor name, course name, and test requested.
5. To maintain a quiet atmosphere, no cell phones or children are allowed in the Center for Learning, including the testing rooms. Please do not talk unnecessarily to the test proctor once inside the testing room and at no time talk to other students testing.
6. Once you begin the exam, you must complete the exam before leaving the testing room for any reason. Please use the restroom prior to beginning the test.
7. You will be required to leave all coats, hats, backpacks, and purses in the area designated by the test proctor. These items will not be permitted in the testing room.
8. Your instructor will tell you the testing instructions/parameters. Those same instructions will be provided to the Center for Learning staff and will be adhered to. These instructions will include time limits, which items can or cannot be used during testing (i.e. notes, books, calculator, etc.).
9. If you violate testing guidelines established by the instructor or the Center for Learning, the proctor has the right to collect your test before you are completed with it. The instructor will be informed of the guideline(s) violated and decide the disciplinary action.
10. After you have completed the test, whether on-line or paper-pencil, please return the test to the proctor and/or inform the proctor that you are done.
11. The Center for Learning staff does not have the capability of providing test results. Please see your instructor.
