Alternative testing accommodations may include, but are not limited to:
Students who receive testing accommodations may take their exams in the AAS office or in the classroom with their approved accommodations. All exams are scheduled through AIM. We use the same system to notify your instructor that they need to set up your exam with your accommodations.
Students wishing to take their exam(s) in the AAS office must submit an exam request a minimum of three(3) business days before the scheduled exam date. For final exams we require a minimum of five(5) business days advance notice.
If the request is submitted after that date, AIM will automatically require you to complete a late submission form. Please indicate why the request is late and add details in the note box provided – especially if the exam was announced late by the instructor. You cannot submit your exam request without completing the late submission form. Failure to adhere to advanced notice procedures may result in testing delays or an inability to provide accommodated testing for a specific request.
Requests submitted after the start time scheduled by the instructor or less than 24 hours in advance may be declined. Habitually submitting late requests without a disability or instructor related reason may also result in a declined request.
Testing requests are approved or declined individually – if we are unable to provide accommodations for one exam, you may still request and receive accommodations for all future exams.
Questions and concerns may be directed to the AAS Testing Coordinator.
The best way to ensure exams are received is to:
Exams may also be emailed to dstesting@astate.edu. Completed exams will be returned via the method indicated in the testing agreement completed by the faculty member.
Under NO circumstances are students allowed to transport their own exams to\from our office.
