Things to Know Before Coming to the Testing Center

  • Know class name, course number and instructor’s name.
  • A current Government issued picture ID is required to test (UVU ID, driver’s license, military, or passport).
  • A #2 pencil is needed for bubble sheets.
  • All books, papers, notebooks, etc… must be contained in a backpack or in a Testing Center blue bag (provided) and placed under your desk.
  • Cell phones, pagers and palm pilots must be powered off before entering the Testing Center and placed into the blue bag. There are no electronic dictionaries allowed, only paperback, if authorized by the instructor.
  • Food and drink are not permitted.
  • While testing, items should never be taken out of your bag without checking with a Testing Center employee first. It could be interpreted as cheating.
  • The last test/quiz is handed out 60 minutes prior to closing.

SCRATCH PAPER, CUE SHEETS, TESTING AIDS

  • Students are required to supply their own scratch paper.
  • All paper used for testing will be stamped with a CTC stamp and will be collected at the end of the test. The scratch paper will be discarded unless we are told otherwise by the student.
  • Cue sheets/notes should meet your instructor’s specifications for size and number of pages. The testing center staff has the right to refuse any cue sheet or notes that are questionable.
  • Scientific, graphing and programmable calculators are allowed only when specified by your instructor and the memory must be cleared.
  • The following are NOT permitted for use: electronic dictionaries, headphones, computers/laptops, cell phones, pagers, palm pilots, or any other electronic devices.

PAYMENT OF FEES

  • Pencils and blue books are sold in the Classroom Testing Center. Pencils are $0.25 and blue books are $0.50.
  • Taking the test on the “fee day” will result in a $3.00 fee. (Students can check online to look up their tests schedule and scores online). Log in to UV link, select student tab, select CTC student services.
  • Classroom Testing cannot make change for anything greater than a $20.00 bill. Checks are accepted for the exact amount only, though a $20 fee will be assessed on all returned checks.

TURNING IN A FINISHED TEST

  • Students should leave their backpack/blue bag closed until they have turned in the test.
  • ALL testing materials (including scratch paper) must be turned in to the employee at the counter. Scratch paper will be discarded unless student tells us otherwise (to hand in).
  • After the exam has been scored the student will not be able to review the test or see answers from their scantron. Any questions regarding answers or test questions should be directed to the instructor, not a Testing Center employee.

THE REMOVAL OF TESTS OR TESTING MATERIALS FROM THE TESTING CENTER IS VIEWED AS CHEATING AND WILL BE REPORTED TO THE INSTRUCTOR, THE DEAN OF STUDENT LIFE AND CAMPUS POLICE.
