   Before your exam

  • Arrive to the testing center at least 15 minutes before your scheduled exam time with the materials needed for exam (pencils, calculator, scantron, etc.). Your time will begin at the designated exam start time. Late arrivals will be subject to starting at the professor's discretion and may need to be rescheduled based on the testing center's space and proctor availability.
  • You must bring identification, such as your CU Student ID or Driver’s License
  • Waiting is not permitted; students may wait in the Front Office Lobby of the Student Testing Center only at least 15 minutes before the scheduled appointment time.
  • No personal belongings are allowed in the testing rooms (backpacks, purses, cell phones, etc.). Hats, sunglasses and oversized jackets or coats must be removed before entering the testing room. If certain prohibited items are needed due to accommodation, please connect with your access coordinator in Disability Services for more information.
  • It is the student’s responsibility to ensure their exam is for the right course and exam/quiz number before starting the exam.
  • Refrain from wearing strong scented lotions, perfumes, deodorants, etc. that may trigger allergic reactions or create a distracting environment.

   While testing

  • Restroom breaks are not allowed unless you have been approved for breaks during exams due to disability accommodations or otherwise permitted by your professor. Please use the restroom if needed prior to your exam time.
  • Accessing locked materials during a break is NOT allowed unless otherwise permitted for accommodation purposes.
  • Proctors are available during your exam and will be sitting outside the testing spaces using live feed cameras. These cameras are for proctoring purposes only and footage is not recorded.
  • Refrain from talking, shouting, or crumpling paper in the test environment. Distracting behavior will result in being asked to leave the testing room.
  • Any behavior that appears to be cheating will be questioned and reported to the professor immediately.
  • If you’d like to know how much time you have remaining, please raise your hand to get the attention of a proctor. The proctor will let you know how much time you have left. Personal timers are only allowed in private rooms.
  • Please do not leave the exam area unless otherwise permitted for a break or until you have completed your exam.

   After your exam

  • All test materials must be placed in your testing envelope at the end of the exam, including scratch paper and formula sheets (unless otherwise directed by your professor). Exceptions are made if the exam is taken online or if you are using a computer for an exam. STC staff will collect your belongings when you have finished.
  • If you are taking an exam online, please let a proctor know when you have finished. Proctors will need to see a confirmation that you have successfully completed or submitted an exam.
  • If your STC exam time finishes before the regular class exam time, you may not discuss or share information about the exam with classmates until their exam is complete. This could be considered as violating the CU Honor Code of “On my honor, as a University of babyÖ±²¥app Boulder student I have neither given nor received unauthorized assistance." Consequences may follow if the Honor Code is broken.
