EXAM DAY

Proctors

All examinations are administered by proctors to ensure that the Exam Rules and Regulations, and course examination instructions, are followed by all examinees. Students who violate Rules and Regulations and Academic Standards and/or who fail to follow instructions in the examination room as provided by proctors will be subject to disciplinary action. • Proctors check all students in to the examination room. If you are planning to handwrite the examination please notify the proctor at check-in so that they may provide you with a handwriting book. Proctors will examine materials brought in to a limited open book examination at check-in to ensure that the materials are in compliance with the faculty member’s instructions. Once a student checks in to the examination the student may not leave the exam room until after the exam has begun. • Proctors announce examination instructions, provide Examplify passwords and distribute and collect examinations. • Proctors keep official time and will announce the beginning and ending time of the examination. A 1 hour warning and 10 minute warning will be provided. No student will be permitted to check out or leave the room during the last 10 minutes of the examination even if you have completed the examination. • If you need assistance during the examination (questions regarding the exam, computer issues, finished handwriting book and require additional book etc.) please raise your hand and wait for the proctor to come to you. • During the examination the proctor/s will walk around the room continuously. Each student’s identification card must be visible during the course of the examination and all examination material must be in view of the proctor. Possession of unauthorized materials during an exam is a violation of academic integrity (II.F) and is subject to disciplinary action. • Students may leave the examination room, with proctor permission, only to use the restroom on the same floor as the room in which the student is taking the examination. Only ONE student is permitted to leave the examination room at a time and must be signed out and in by the proctor. The student must give all of their examination materials to the proctor upon leaving the room. The materials will be returned by the proctor to the student upon reentering the examination room. Students using a laptop must lower the laptop cover (do not close). Students are not permitted to visit any other areas for any other reason during the examination. • Once the proctor announces that the examination has ended, all remaining students must stop writing OR typing and remain seated. The proctor will announce final instructions for uploading the examination and inform the students when and how they may approach the desk to submit their examination material. There should not be any communication among students during this period.
