If you have accommodations identified by the Division of Rehabilitation-Education Services (DRES) for exams, please make your proctoring arrangements with DRES.

If you have any issue during an exam, please inform the proctor immediately. Work with the proctor to resolve the issue at the time before logging off.

Review the exam information at least a day before each exam.

Please review all instructions on this website before your first exam.
