Check with the testing center to make sure it is open when you want to take an exam. You may choose a testing center on any campus. Center hours sometimes vary, so call first to make sure the testing center will be open when you want to take an exam.

Be sure you allow enough time to take the exam. Each testing center requires that you arrive at least two hours before closing.

Be sure to bring a photo ID and your exam pass. You can find exam passes for non-online courses in the full-length syllabus or on your course website for online courses. Passes may also be obtained directly from the distance learning Web site. Select the semester, the discipline, and then the course.
