Test Proctoring
CLASS Testing Center
The CLASS Testing Center, located in ZSR 231, provides a testing environment for undergratduate students with approved disability accommodations. CLASS will only proctor tests and exams (not quizzes) for students with testing accommodations in the following circumstances:
- The instructor has exhausted all other options within the department (such as rescheduling the exam in the department if the student cannot start before or stay after the scheduled class time or having other departmental graduate students or staff help with proctoring a test within the department).
- The student’s testing accommodation requires a separate testing space that cannot be managed in the department.
Guidelines
- The CLASS Testing Center is open Monday-Friday 9:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
- The CLASS Testing Center is located in ZSR 231.
- Reservations for proctoring should be made at least 3 business days in advance. (See chart below.)
- Testing appointments should begin at the same time as in-class administration of the exam. Exceptions will only be made for accommodation-related time adjustments and must be approved by the instructor.
- Students must arrive on time. Students who arrive late to their test proctoring session must still end their test at the scheduled ending time, regardless of an existing extended time accommodation.
- Same day changes – even with faculty approval – cannot be accommodated.
- Test proctoring appointments can only be scheduled by students (not instructors).
- Instructors must complete a “CLASS Alternative Testing Agreement” before a requested testing appointment date is confirmed.
Student Responsibilities
- To request a test proctoring appointment, students must log in to the student portal from the CLASS website, navigate to ACCOMMODATIONS, select Alternative Testing, and then follow the instructions.
