Need a make-up? This can be approved based on Disability Services and your faculty's discretion. DS will only proctor make-up exams on Monday and Tuesdays. Communicate any changes through the Student Access Portal.
Important: Exam Request Cancellations
If you miss three exam appointments, "no show" without notifying Disability Services, you may lose your testing accommodations. To regain privileges, you’ll need to meet with your Access Coordinator.

- Testing must occur during our business hours: 8 a.m. - 6 p.m., Monday to Friday.
