I’m coming to campus for orientation. How do I receive accommodations for the Math Placement Test?

In order to receive accommodations for the Math Placement Test, students must register with Disability Services.  Explore the Registration Process dropdown menu for information about the student self-identification form and appropriate documentation.

What is the earliest and latest time I can start an exam?

A student can begin no more than 15 minutes before the start time listed on the testing form. If a student arrives 15 minutes after the scheduled start time listed on the testing form they will be sent back to their professor for a reschedule. 15 minutes is considered a “no show” as referenced on the Testing Policies and Procedures.

How far in advance do I need to submit a Test Proctoring Form?

To ensure access to a proctoring space, completed Test Proctoring Forms should be submitted at least 48 business hours in advance of the exam, and 24 business hours for pop quizzes. The Testing Center will not be able to accommodate same day requests for tests/quizzes.

How can I confirm my test has been scheduled after submitting my Test Proctoring Form?

Tests can be confirmed by sending an email to dstests@gmu.edu with your name, G#, and date & time the exam was scheduled for on the form.

Will Testing Center hours change during finals?

Yes, our Testing Center adjusts our hours to reflect the university’s final exam schedule. Students are encouraged to review the Final Exam Schedule on the Registrar’s website.

How do I return Test Proctoring Forms after they have been completed?

Forms can be emailed to dstests@gmu.edu or dropped off at the Testing Center in SUB 1 Rm 3313. If the form is dropped off after operating hours, forms can be placed into the blue mailbox outside of the office.

How do I fill out the Test Proctoring Form?

Testing Forms should be completed with the professor. The student and the professor should coordinate a time and date for taking tests that is within the operating hours of the Testing Center. Both the student and professor should sign the form (can be done electronically) as well as complete their own sections on the form.
