Make-Up Testing

Faculty may arrange for a student who misses an exam for a legitimate reason to take a make-up test in the Academic Achievement Center’s testing room. A photo ID and an appointment are required to take a test in the AAC.

General Guidelines for Requesting Make-Up Testing Services

Information for Students:

To take a test through our Center, please make an appointment. Your faculty member will have already dropped off the exam.
Please bring a picture ID with you on the day of the test.
Your faculty member will drop off the exam in advance and pick it up from Testing Services after you have completed it.

Information for Faculty:

Testing Services is available to assist individual students with a legitimate reason for taking a make-up exam.
We cannot administer exams for an entire class or group, including for online courses.
Exams must be dropped off and picked up at Testing Services in the Academic Achievement Center.
Please complete the Testing Exam Form and attach the exam. Please remind students to make an appointment with the testing staff.
On the form, include:
- Student’s name
- Exam instructions
- Exam deadline

Note: If the student’s name is missing from the form, we cannot administer the exam. In addition, we are unable to administer exams after the deadline unless the faculty member provides a note or phone call.

For security reasons:

Students cannot drop off exams on behalf of faculty members.
Completed exams cannot be removed from the testing area by students.

If you have any questions about these guidelines, please contact Barbara Bernard at 781-239-2629.
