The Testing Center for Central Ohio Technical College and The Ohio State University at Newark is located in Hopewell 53.
Many types of tests are administered in the Testing Center, including, but not limited to, COMPASS placement testing, proficiency tests, make up tests, and class tests for students with authorized accommodations. All testing is done individually – that is, no full classes are proctored.
The Testing Center provides a testing space for students with documented disabilities. Their accommodations may include extended time, soundproof room, a reader and/or scribe. A student must present the instructor with a signed accommodation form from the Office for Disability Services. The Testing Center has two soundproof rooms for use by students who require a distraction-reduced environment. The rooms are scheduled on a first-come first-served basis by stopping by Hopewell 53 with the ODS accommodation form. The accommodation sheet must be presented each time the student takes a test in the Testing Center.
If a student misses an exam and presents the instructor with adequate justification for the absence, the faculty member may request that a make-up test be proctored in the Testing Center. The instructor must fill out a Proctoring Request form for each test brought to the Testing Center. These forms are available in the front office in H53.
Students should check with the Testing Center regarding the open hours available. Monday through Thursday, the last test is handed out at 6:00 pm; on Friday, the last test is handed out at 3:00 pm. Instructors determine the amount of time allotted for each exam; therefore, students must arrive early enough to allow themselves at least this much time to complete any exams before the Testing Center closes.
