Contact the library to verify that your exam has been received before your scheduled test day/time.  The library receives most tests 1 day before your scheduled exam day.

It is up to the student to inform their institution of the day and time scheduled for the exam.

Students do not need to bring anything with them on testing day.  The library provides pen, pencil, scratch paper (if approved by institution), calculator (Only is approved by institution), and any other approved test materials.  Students may not have any personal items with them while taking a test.
