Test Lab Policies
    

It is very important that students follow procedures listed below in order to utilize the Test Lab for accommodations:

• Students must call ext. 8560 between the hours of 8:00 am and 4:45pm to schedule an appointment in advance (a minimum of one day in advance). Tests are to be scheduled at the same time the class meets, unless the professor has given prior approval to take the exam at an alternate time. The faculty member must give this approval directly to the Test Lab Coordinator. If a student has permission to begin early, he/she will not be permitted to leave the Test Lab until 15 minutes of the scheduled class time has passed. Make-up exams can be scheduled at any time. No tests will begin after 3:00 pm.

• The student should notify the professor of his/her need to test in the lab at least two days in advance of each test. The student should check with the professor in person, not by email, two days in advance, about the arrangement for test delivery. In addition, the student must notify the Test Lab Coordinator if the Test Lab is responsible for test pick up or if the professor plans ot drop the test off to the Test Lab.

• If a reader or scribe is necessary for testing, the student must notify the Test Lab Coordinator at least three (3) days in advance so that arrangements may be made. Otherwise, there is a chance that a reader or scribe will not be available. If requesting a LBP clinician, please notify the Test Lab Coordinator at the time of scheduling. The Test Lab Coordinator will then notify LBP and make the proper arrangements.

• If a word processor is needed for an essay exam, the student must notify the Test Lab Coordinator when he/she makes the appointment to take each test.

• The student must arrive at the Test Lab at the same time the class meets unless written or verbal permission from the professor has been given directly to the Test Lab Coordinator. If a student arrives late for an exam, the student must contact the professor to arrange for a make-up exam (unless the professor indicates to the Test Lab Coordinator that the exam can be taken at any time).

• The student will not be permitted to leave the Test Lab once testing has begun. Take care of your physical needs before entering the Test Lab. Also, all belongings must remain outside of the Test Lab while testing (Including all cellphones and personal digital assistants such as palm pilots).

• The Test Lab Coordinator arranges for the confidential return of the test to the professor.

**Students will not be permitted to take a test in the Test Lab without an appointment!
