Non-BGSU Exams

The BGSU Testing Center provides secure test-proctoring services for qualifying BGSU students. Priority scheduling is given to students that receive academic accommodations through BGSU Accessibility Services for extended test time or a space with limited distractions. Students that wish to utilize additional accommodations they have been granted should still schedule their exams through BGSU Accessibility Services. Other requests for exam proctoring are handled on a case-by-case basis (i.e. make-up exams, Math Placement exams, exams for external entities), but in nearly all instances we can accommodate your proctoring needs.

Proctored testing is available by appointment. To arrange an appointment, please complete the following steps.

1. Discuss with your professor and external testing services office of your school. You may have very specific rules/requirements for testing at a University Testing Center.
2. Please forward all required documentation to Jeremy Joseph at jjoseph@bgsu.edu. This includes all verification forms and proctor acknowledgements.
3. You will need to know when you are allowed to take the exam. Your professor may have requirements on the date(s) or time(s) that you will be permitted to take the exam. Exam proctoring hours are Monday – Friday, 9:00 AM – 8:00 PM. All exams must be completed by 8:00 PM.
4. Contact Jeremy Joseph at jjoseph@bgsu.edu or by phone at 419-372-9129 to arrange a testing appointment.
5. The fee for external exams is $25 per exam. Payment is required prior to your appointment being finalized. Payment can be processed using our payment link or the orange button below.
6. Communicate your appointment booking with your professor and/or institution. They will provide the Testing Center with your exam and exam instructions prior to the exam. They will receive an email from the Testing Center as well requesting this information.
7. Respond to any correspondence from the Testing Center regarding your appointment. We may have additional questions or have specific information to relay to you.

Bring a photo ID. Please be sure to arrive promptly for your appointment. The end of your appointment cannot be extended. Testing is conducted in the Jerome Library, room 129. Parking is available in Lot N.

Please note, personal belongings cannot accompany you into the Testing Center for your exam. You will be provided a lock and key and directed to the bay of lockers down the hall from the testing room. All of your belongings, save anything that is permitted for the exam, must be left in the locker.

If you have any questions, concerns, or comments, please contact us at testcenter@bgsu.edu, or call us at 419-372-1313.
