• A minimum of one week advance notice is required before any test will be proctored. Appointments can be made in person, by phone, or by email.

• There is a $20 service fee required, per test, for administering and returning exams. Fees must be paid prior to starting testing. The student or the examining institution must provide a return envelope and postage if applicable.

• All test requirements and materials must be received from the issuing educational, vocational, or other institution before any tests are taken.

• Exams will be administered during the computer lab’s operating hours Monday through Friday. The test must be completed 15 minutes before the library closes. The student is responsible for ensuring he/she have enough time to complete his/her test in the allotted time.
