Using the Testing Center

Student Responsibilities

PRIOR TO TEST DAY

• Students must first provide their professors with their current ADS letter of accommodation ("memo").
• Students should submit all Testing Center requests at least three (3) business days in advance of the test date. 
• If students do not make their requests according to the procedures listed above, they may not have the opportunity to be accommodated. Please email adstesting AT_TOWSON if there are extenuating circumstances.

On Test Day

• Students should arrive at the Testing Services Center at the time of their scheduled appointment and be prepared to show their TU student ID.
• Students are responsible for bringing all necessary testing materials with them (i.e., Scantron, blue book) and any other test aids approved by their professor such as calculator, textbook, notes. Please note: Testing Services Center does not provide these materials. 
• Food and beverages are not permitted in the Testing Services Center unless they are approved accommodations documented on the student's letter of accommodation.
• Study time is not allowed past the scheduled appointment time.

Five Things Students Should Know for Finals

1. Test Requests should be made at least 5 business days before your Final Exam.
2. The ADS Testing Center will be open until 7:00pm during finals on week days and as needed for common exams on Saturday.
3. The ADS Testing Center follows the Final Exam Schedule of 8:00am, 10:15am, 12:30pm, and 3:00pm.
4. The Testing Center does not have enough seats for every student within a Final Exam period. As a result, remote spaces are used as alternative testing locations in Cook Library to provide accommodations that do not require a computer or assistive technology.
5. Testing Center staff will begin checking students in 15 minutes before the exam start time outside the Testing Center door.
