PLACEMENT TESTS

Placement tests are administered per Admissions, Student Engagement, or advisor referral. Students need to bring a valid ID to take a placement test in the Learning Commons – Academic Support.

MAKE-UP TESTS

When a student is, in the faculty member’s judgment, unable to attend a scheduled exam in the classroom for a campus class for a legitimate reason, the Learning Commons – Academic Support will administer the exam. At this time, students must schedule the makeup test in advance by calling the Learning Commons – Academic Support on the campus where the test will be taken (Auburn: 315-294-8593; Fulton: 315-593-9378).

Faculty must complete a Learning Commons - Academic Support Test Cover Sheet and attach it to each test. Faculty should bring makeup tests to the Learning Commons – Academic Support front desk with a completed cover sheet. Learning Commons – Academic Support staff will secure the test until the test time. Faculty can also retrieve completed tests by visiting the Learning Commons – Academic Support front desk.

ACCOMMODATIVE TESTING

Students with documented disabilities who are entitled to testing accommodations will be able to take unit/classroom exams for their campus classes in the Learning Commons – Academic Support. Faculty should bring tests with extended time/separate location accommodations to the Learning Commons – Academic Support front desk with a completed Learning Commons - Academic Support Test Cover Sheet.

Staff will secure the test until the test time. Faculty can also retrieve completed tests by visiting the Learning Commons – Academic Support front desk.

If a student has an accommodation that requires assistive technology, the test and test cover sheet should be emailed to the OAR Instructional Assistant on the campus where the test will be taken. These tests can be retrieved at the Learning Commons – Academic Support front desk.
