OAR Testing Center
Office of Accessibility Resources
What is the OAR Testing Center?
The Office of Accessibility Resources (OAR) provides a Testing Center as a secondary option for those students whose professors cannot accommodate their testing accommodation needs. The Center provides a quiet space for up to 14 students who are registered with the OAR to take their quizzes/tests. (4 non-internet connected computers are available.)
Given that there are 14 spaces available, the center requires advanced reservation (72 business hours notice) and is scheduled on a first-come first-served basis. The Center is NOT a drop-in service.
