Test Proctoring

Testing Information
Test Proctoring is offered to Cal Poly Pomona students who need to schedule a make-up exam due to serious and compelling reasons (i.e. illness). Faculty must submit a Faculty Request Form for approved make-up exams. For scheduling purposes, Faculty Request Forms must be received at least 24* hours in advance of completion date and time. Please note that students registered with the Disablity Resource Center (DRC) who need additional accommodations will need to schedule their make up exam with the DRC. The DRC can be contacted at (909) 869-3333 or drc@cpp.edu.
