Distance Learning Exams for Other Institutions

Overview

The FSU Assessment and Testing (AT) is happy to serve students who are taking online courses with other schools and need to take proctored exams for those courses. If you are a student in need of these services and are interested in testing with us, please read the policies and procedures below. (Exception: If your exam is for a University of Florida Correspondence Course, please refer to UF Distance Learning Exams for more information, as these are handled differently.)

Before the Testing Session

Please contact your home institution and make arrangements to have the exam sent to us. Exams may be mailed to:

Testing Administrator
FSU Assessment and Testing
296 Champions Way
University Center C, Ste 1200
Tallahassee, FL 32306

Exams may also be emailed to testing@campus.fsu.edu.

It is recommended that the exam be received by CAT at least 48 hours before the scheduled test date.

You will not need to make an appointment to take your exam. You may simply walk in during our office hours. We begin administering exams at 8:30 AM. You should also keep in mind that we are required to allow the full time limit to test you. This means, for example, if your test has a 2 hour time limit, you will need to be seated no later than 2 hours before we close. You will not be allowed to test if you are late. Please make sure you plan accordingly.

At the Testing Session

When you come in to take your exam, make sure you present the following items:

  • A valid photo ID. Examples include driver license, passport, and student ID.
  • A $12 test administration fee made payable to FSU. We can only accept money orders or, if you have an FSU Card, you may use FSUCash. This payment is non-refundable.

You will not be admitted without both of these items.

While you are testing, you will need to abide by our testing policies. Please read these carefully, as failure to obey these rules will result in dismissal.
