Accommodated Testing

How to Book an Appointment

Clockwork Appointment Required

The Testing & Assessment Center can only proctor exams to DRC students that meet the Clockwork appointment booking deadlines:

• Exams must be booked at least three (3) business days/weekdays in advance of the instructor approved exam date/time.
• Finals exams must be scheduled seven (7) business days/weekdays in advance of the instructor approved exam date/time. Due to the large number of students served during finals week, students may test in different testing labs at their scheduled location.
• Failure to meet appointment booking deadlines will result in the forfeit of testing accommodations and you will be required to take their exam in class.
• Contact the DRC if you cannot find or utilize your MyPortal Clockwork Portal.
• New students must register with the DRC to schedule testing accommodations.

Appointment Booking Example

If your exam is on Monday at 2 p.m., book your appointment via Clockwork before 2 p.m. on Wednesday.

How to Talk to Your Professor

We recommend you meet with your professor after class or during office hours to:

• Review the course syllabus
• Agree upon your exam dates and times
• Talk about exam rules and allowable materials for each exam
• Schedule Your Clockwork Appointments
• Download a Conversation Starter Guide

 

On the Day of Your Scheduled Testing Appointment

You will be testing in the location where you booked your appointment:

• Testing & Assessment Center, 8212, Student Services Building
• Sunnyvale Center, Testing Services, 211, Student Resource Center
• Plan to arrive 10-15 minutes early
• An owl card or government issued I.D. will be required at check-in
• All non-approved testing materials items will be secured in the Center's lockers
• A testing specialist will review the student's accommodations, review the rules for the exam, and then proctor your exam.
• Should you arrive at any time other than their designated Clockwork appointment time, Testing & Assessment Center staff must contact the instructor for approval to deviate from the appointment time--this can delay your testing start time or result in the cancellation of your appointment.
