Proctored  Testingwriting

Online classes sometimes require proctored testing which means a person will need to monitor you while you take your test.  Please check your syllabus to see if your class has this requirement.

 

Math course students should use the Math Test Center located in Kettler G18.

 

All other proctored testing is available at IPFW's Test Center located in KT 232.  Schedule your appointment to take your test in advance by calling 260-481-6600. 

 

If you live out of state or out of the country, please contact Deb Hein for more info.
