NEW FALL Testing Security Protocols
Phones: Students must bring their phone to the session. During the environment scan, students will be asked to show how to place their phones out of reach. If visual verification is not provided, the student will be removed from the session.
Reading Aloud: Students are prohibited from talking during the exam, reading aloud, or covering their mouths. Non-compliance will result in removal from the session.
Headphones: Students are not permitted to wear headphones at any time during the session. Closed captioning is available.

*Session count updated daily. Actual availability may vary, so schedule your appointment as soon as possible.
You may schedule up to 3 weeks in advance, and within 24-hours limited to availability.
Browser: Use Google Chrome and ensure it is fully updated and set as your default browser.
Device Check: If using a Mac, you must enable screen sharing in your System Settings.
Practice: Not sure if your setup works? Join a practice session to test your settings.
Planning: Schedule your exam a few days early. We cannot accommodate same-day or next-day appointments.
Internet: Use a stable Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection. Avoid mobile hotspots, as they often cause disconnects.
Power Up: Keep your device plugged into a charger so you don’t lose power during your exam.
Ready Your ID: Have your photo ID and instructor-approved materials on your desk.
Find Your Exam: Know exactly where your exam is located. You can have the Blackboard exam page open and ready to show your proctor.
Tab Management: Close all apps and extra tabs. You are allowed only one Chrome window open with tabs for Gmail, Blackboard, and your exam (unless noted otherwise).
Screen Sharing: You must share your ENTIRE screen. If you cannot share your full screen, you will not be able to test and must reschedule.
No Breaks: You cannot leave the room once the session begins. If you must leave, you have to submit your exam and contact your instructor.
