How do I take my exam off-campus?
February 29th, 2008 by Daniel
One of the big problems for students taking self-paced, online or GIS courses is how to take an exam when their class never meets. I get this question a lot and I don’t have any direct help I can give. Let me make a couple suggestions.
- Ask your instructor Your instructor may have made some arrangements for taking the exam or set out some guidelines for finding a proctor to monitor your exam.
- GIS classes through the Center for Credit Programs Exam information for GIS classes is available at http://continuetolearn.uiowa.edu/ccp/gis/courses/examinfo.htm.
- Semester classes through the Center for Credit Programs For semester long online classes, exams are administered online through ICON. More information is available at http://www.continuetolearn.uiowa.edu/ccp/de/examinfo/webexams.htm.
- Are you taking distance classes from another institution? The Center for Credit Programs testing center may be able to help you out. Contact them at de-exams@uiowa.edu.
