The A.R.C. Testing Center proctors exams (i.e. quizzes, tests, midterms, finals, etc.) for students with authorized testing accommodations. Students must activate their testing accommodation(s) every term and schedule for testing with the Testing Center to ensure timely access to authorized testing accommodations.
Common testing accommodations include (but are not limited to):
Activate Testing Accommodation at the start of every term. Testing accommodations must be approved before activating.
The A.R.C. Testing Center will receive and process your activation form then send testing accommodation paperwork to each of your instructors by e-mail. Once this process is complete, the Testing Center will send you a confirmation e-mail, which will instruct you to schedule for testing.
All student must have a current Student Guidelines for Testing Accommodations form on file with the A.R.C. Testing Center. Check with the Testing Center for your status.
