The Center for Students with Disabilities (CSD) testing administration process has changed.
For students who are approved for exam/quiz accommodations and their faculty cannot administer the exam/quiz either in class or within the department with the approved accommodations, exams/quizzes may be administered by the CSD.
NEW Testing Administration Procedures:
- Students should discuss their approved exam accommodations with their faculty to determine where exams will be administered with the approved accommodations (e.g., in class, instructor’s office, at the CSD).
- Students should complete an online Exam Administration Form* for each quiz or exam to be administered and proctored by the CSD. The online form is available on the CSD website at http://csdwp.uconn.edu/exam-administration-form/.
- Once the online Exam Administration Form is submitted, the student will receive a confirmation e-mail, and the faculty will receive an e-mail requesting information regarding the administration of the exam/quiz from the CSD exam team.
- Faculty should respond to the CSD exam team e-mail in a timely manner to confirm and provide information regarding the exam/quiz in order for the assessment to be administered and proctored at the CSD.
- Students will receive a follow up e-mail from the CSD exam team confirming the arrangements and scheduling of the exam/quiz once the details have been confirmed with the faculty.
- Faculty should deliver the exam/quiz to the CSD in a timely manner via e-mail to csdexams@uconn.edu or confidential fax to (860) 486-4412. Exams may also be delivered in a sealed envelope by the faculty member, department designee (e.g., TA) or student. Faculty members should not send exams to the CSD through campus mail.
- Faculty should assist the CSD in making appropriate arrangements for exam/quiz return. Whenever possible, the CSD will return exams/quizzes via e-mail or fax. Faculty members or department designees may also pick up exams at the CSD. Faculty members may also request that the student return the exam in a sealed, security envelope. The CSD will not return exams via campus mail.
*ONLINE FORMS MUST BE SUBMITTED TO THE CSD AT LEAST 3 DAYS IN ADVANCE OF THE QUIZ OR EXAM IN ORDER TO ENSURE SUFFICIENT TIME TO PROVIDE ACCOMMODATIONS. FAILURE TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE NOTICE AND/OR INCOMPLETE FORMS MAY RESULT IN THE ACCOMMODATIONS NOT BEING AVAILABLE.
The CSD will continue to ensure the security and integrity of all exams/quizzes administered at the CSD.
