Make-Up & Distance Learning Tests

Each professor has their own policy about what can be done to make up a missed test. Some professors do not allow make-up testing at all; others allow you to take your test in the Testing Center.

If your professor allows you to take a test in the Testing Center, first arrange with them to send the test and instructions for taking it (Proctored Exam Cover Sheet) to the Testing Center.

Request an appointment at least 24 hours in advance. We currently do not offer evening or weekend testing appointments. All testers will be required to show an official photo ID at the time of testing.

Students taking some online GCC math courses are required to take in-person proctored exams. Instructors will contact students early in the semester with directions for how to schedule appointments. Only students with accommodations through the Office of Disability services are eligible to test in the Testing Center.

Students taking distance learning courses from institutions other than GCC can request to take an in-person proctored exam. You will need to make arrangements with your professor to mail/email the exam(s) and instructions for proctoring. There is no charge for this service. You will need to bring a photo ID when you come to take your exam. Please contact testing@gcc.mass.edu for more information. Appointments are required.
