Disability Services
University of
Wisconsin Stevens Point
Instructors may take care of your
test accommodations in their area.
However, if they are not able to do so, they will refer you back to our office
to make arrangements for taking tests.
Since we organize test accommodations for about 800 exams each semester,
we have a procedure for taking your tests through Disability
Services.
Meet with the
Coordinator of Disability Services to have forms completed that specify your test accommodation needs for each
course.
Meet with each
instructor regarding your test accommodations and get clarification as to
whether they will take care of your test accommodation or you will test through
Disability Services. In some
instances, you may need to take the exam through Disability Services since your
test taking needs can only be accommodated through our office.
In these cases, the
accommodation request form will be marked accordingly.
If scheduling your
test(s) through Disability Services, stop in the office at 609 Learning Resource
Center and complete the form for each test.
You may now also complete the form online -
Exam Accommodation Request
Form.
Forms need to be turned in to Disability Services five (5) school
days/week days in advance of the test (please note that it takes five days to
communicate between instructor, proctor, location source and you, before we
finalize testing). A simpler *way
would be to bring your syllabus to our office and complete a test form for all
your exams (Please remember to notify us if there are any change in test dates
and times).
You will then receive
an email with confirmation of your test day, time, and location.
Your professor and proctor will also be notified.
Your proctor will pick
up the exam, sit with you during the exam to provide the instructor an assurance
that the exam is protected at all times, and return the exam to the instructor.
If you have any questions regarding the test taking procedure through Disability Services, please call us at 346-3365.
Thank
you for your cooperation in this process.
