Welcome to the Testing Center!

The Testing Center provides testing services to support the academic and professional goals of students and the community. We provide an environment that is equitable and secure so each tester has the opportunity to demonstrate their ability and obtain valid results.

We adhere to the Professional Standards and Guidelines set by the National College Testing Association (NCTA). All testers must stow their belongings, including any cell phone or other electronics, before entering an exam room.
