Summer 2022 Exam Testing/Proctoring Protocols

Kean - Union

Students are responsible for requesting test accommodations from professors at least a week to ten days in advance. Students who arrange with their professor to take their test/exams through OAS, must have the professor complete an Adaptive Testing Form (found on the OAS web page under "Adaptive Testing Service" ) and send that form along with the exam to OAS.  Students must contact OAS seven (7) to ten (10) days or more in advance to schedule a testing appointment the same day/time as their class. Same day and/or last minute appointments will not be accepted.

 

Kean - Ocean

The OCC Testing Center provides accommodation testing for Kean/Ocean students who cannot take their tests in class.  After confirming your testing needs and test dates with your instructors, schedule your testing appointment at go.ocean.edu/test.  You will need to present a current, valid photo ID and your accommodation plan on test day. Contact us at 732.255.0401 if you have any questions.
