Testing Accommodations

Before scheduling an exam, you must first ensure you have officially requested your accommodations for your course and shared your Accommodation Letter with your faculty. 

If you have not yet done this, please review the instructions on the Accommodations for DSPS Students page.

Please follow the steps below to schedule your exams:

1. Select “Schedule an Exam or Quiz.”
2. From the top black menu, click “Schedule a test, mid-term or quiz.”
3. You’ll be taken to the Online Test Booking home screen. Click “Next.”
4. Select your course and click “Next.”
5. Enter the test details (date, time, etc.) as provided in your syllabus, then click “Next.”
6. Review the instructor information (this should already be filled in). Click “Next.”
7. Confirm that your approved accommodations are checked. Click “Next.”
8. Choose an available date and time for your exam, then click “Next.”
9. Review all details and click “Finish” to submit your request.
10. After submitting, you’ll receive a confirmation.
11. You can also schedule additional tests or review your upcoming appointments by selecting “My Upcoming Events” from the top menu.
    • NOTE: If no accommodations appear, you have not been approved for testing accommodations. If you believe you should have testing accommodations, please contact the DSPS office to review your file and, if needed, schedule an appointment with a DSPS counselor.
