Exam Accommodations

In-person Exams

The Student Accessibility Centre has resumed invigilation services for courses with on-site quizzes, tests and exams.Ìý

To schedule a quiz/test/exam with onsite invigilation two (2) online submissions are required (one from the faculty, one from the student). You must log in to with your Net ID and password to access the form:

  1. Faculty submit their upon receipt of a student's accommodation (once per test/exam, not per student)
  2. Students submit their no later than 7 days in advance of each quiz/test/exam in the fall and winter terms and 3 weeks prior to the start of December and April finals

You can confirm the students scheduled to write your quiz, test, exam via . Use the quick-start user guide for further information. Please ensure that we have the requisite number of exams per students writing – delivered in person or through .

The Centre’s staff will implement all testing accommodations and invigilate according to your instructions.

The student will be required to write with their class if they miss these deadlines.
