Exam Proctoring

If you are taking Correspondence or Online Courses from another institution and need a proctor, we would be glad to assist you. Please call our office at 859-654-8535 to schedule an appointment.

Proctoring Requirements:

Computer Use:
Before scheduling an appointment, students must ensure that library computers meet test-taking requirements. Students may bring their own laptops and connect to the library’s wireless network only if allowed by the testing institution. (Library staff will not assist in configuring personal laptops or software, and cannot guarantee the speed of its Internet connection.)

Scheduling:
Proctored sessions may be scheduled Monday through Friday for two (2) hours per day; and the request must be submitted at least seven (7) business days in advance. On a case-by-case basis, staff will attempt to accommodate requests for more than two hours.

Responsibility of students:
Provide the library staff with the institution’s educational criteria for proctoring.

Make all arrangements with the institution for delivery of the exam and/or passwords needed for online access, and confirm with proctor that examination materials and information have been received prior to the scheduled exam.

Bring all needed test-taking supplies, such as #2 pencils, scrap paper, and calculators. (Cell phones or similar devices are not allowed while taking exams.)

Responsibility of Proctors:
Follow testing requirements of the educational institution (items not specifically mentioned such as notes, textbooks, personal laptops, etc. will be assumed as not allowed.)

Limitations:
The library reserves the right to cancel or change the date of any proctored exam due to inclement weather, computer malfunctions, etc.

The proctor will not sign a proctoring statement that attests to more than they are able to do, and will not provide personal information such as social security number, driver’s license number, home address, phone number, etc.
