Exam Instructions-Faculty
The Testing Center offers make-up exams to students who miss a classroom exam due to an excused absence approved by the course instructor. This service offers greater flexibility for students when a make-up becomes necessary. This service can only be used when a need exists for the student to test at an alternate time (make-up). The Testing Center is NOT available for entire class testing due to limited spacing. Please understand that the Testing Center should not serve as a substitute for in-class testing. Therefore, entire traditional "face-to-face" or "on-line" classes cannot be accommodated. Please make other arrangements.

Faculty Submitting Exams
The Testing Center is introducing the RegisterBlast Professor Portal, which means faculty utilizing the Testing Center MUST submit exams via the RegisterBlast’s Professor Portal. You MUST Enroll first in the Portal if you have yet to enroll. Click the RB Professor Portal Reference Guide for how to instructions, at your convenience and perusal. We are encouraging faculty to take advantage of utilizing RegisterBlast Professor Portal, and submit exams at least TWO WEEKS PRIOR TO THE ACTUAL EXAM DATES or at the BEGINNING of the semester in order for the Testing Center to process/approve exams submitted in the Portal. Thanks.
The below Instructor Admission Exam Form will be available until the end of Fall 2021 in order for faculty to become acclimated with RegisterBlast Professor Portal. Please select and fill-in all appropriate information on the form.
The below Test Scoring and Report Request Form for scanning/scoring exams is still required for scoring exams because the Scantron Key and Completed Student Scantrons are required to scan.
