Students who are identified as needing accommodations for testing should follow these guidelines:
Register for a test through the testing center at least three (3) days prior to the testing date.
Students who fail to register three days before the testing date may find:
- space may be unavailable at the time needed to take the test
- the Testing Coordinator may have cleared her calendar and be out for the day
- unless students let us know they are coming, we cannot guarantee the test can be administered at the time and place that your instructor and you are expecting
- instructors may not be sympathetic if you failed to make an appointment and cannot test at the appropriate time
At the beginning of the semester, it may be important to remind
your professors to bring your exam to the Testing Center. The last
class prior to your testing date may be a good time for this
reminder.
The Testing Center is located within the Student Success Center,
within the TLC Lab in Room W204. To register for a test, you may
come by the Testing Center or call (318)427-4492.
