    CSD’s Exam Administration Services for Spring 2023

    We appreciate your continued partnership in providing accommodations to students with disabilities. As we begin the new semester, please note the following changes and updates to the Center for Students with Disabilities exam administration procedures:

    *NEW for Spring 2023:

    CSD will offer the following exam return options:

    Option #1: Completed exams will be scanned and uploaded to the Instructor MyAccess portal.  Instructors and TA’s listed in Peoplesoft will have access to retrieve completed assessments electronically.

    Option #2: Instructors or their designees may pick up completed exams from the CSD office in the Wilbur Cross Building, Room 204, between 8am-5pm, Monday-Friday.

    • If you prefer students to complete their work in a blue book, please select ‘Pick up” as the return method. For the ‘Scanned/Uploaded’ return method, students will be provided with lined paper.

     *General Reminders:

    • Students taking exams at the CSD must submit their requests through MyAccess at least one week (or 7 days) in advance of the assessment date.  MyAccess can be reached from CSD’s website homepage, www.csd.uconn.edu or directly at https://csd.uconn.edu/myaccess.
    •  It is a student’s responsibility to confirm an alternate time with their instructor when requesting to take an assessment on a different day/time than the class. CSD will proceed with scheduling student requests and instructors can then confirm or deny requests by scrolling to the bottom of an exam scheduling request in the Instructor MyAccess portal.
    •  Assessments must be uploaded to your MyAccess for Instructors portal at least 24 hours (preferably 48 hours) in advance of the testing date to allow the Accommodations Team time to prepare materials. Alternatively, assessments can be emailed to csdexams@uconn.edu or dropped off at the CSD office.
    •  Visit the ‘Resources’ tab in your Instructors MyAccess portal for additional information.

     

    Please reach out to csdexams@uconn.edu with any questions.
