• By Phone: You can call us at 270.809.3146.
• In-Person: You can schedule in-person with one of our Graduate Assistants in Wells Hall 417 or 413, or with the Retention and Testing Center Specialist in Wells Hall 418.

Students enrolled in online/web courses are encouraged to schedule their exams through the SDS Testing Center the same way as they would if they were enrolled in a course that meets in person. Upon scheduling an exam, our testing center staff will send the student's professor a friendly reminder to include the additional time as part of the student's online exam.

Most often, students taking online exams can take their tests from wherever they would prefer. However, students may choose to schedule time to take their online exams in our Testing Center (if feasible). All of our testing rooms have computers with lockdown browser and webcam, which are required programs professors will often ask students to utilize while testing online. However, if a student decides to take their online exam from an alternate location (i.e., from their off-campus home, the library, their residence hall room, etc.), the student is responsible for creating their own distraction-reduced testing environment and ensuring that their computer/device meets the requirements of their professor.
