Proctored Exams
Offered in Savannah and Statesboro
The proctored exam is designed for students or community members who are participating in distance learning/degree efforts with another school or for certification. The Testing Office offers a quiet, relaxed atmosphere and a flexible schedule. The testing staff will be responsible for maintaining the security of exam materials, carefully checking the identification of students, and administering exams according to specific guidelines set by each institution and professor. It is the responsibility of the tester to ensure the Office of Testing Services has received their exam information prior to testing. (eCore testers must schedule their exam through their eCore portal.)

Students taking their exams on the campus in Statesboro or in Savannah are not required to complete the Off-Campus Proctoring Form. For students testing on-campus at the Testing Office, call or email your preferred Testing Office to schedule your on-campus appointment if not testing with your instructor.
This form must be received at least 48 hours (excluding weekends and holidays) prior to your test. Students are responsible for all proctoring fees.
To access the Off-Campus Proctoring Request Form you must be logged into your MyGS Portal to complete the form.
Approval of Non-College Testing Center Proctor
If you are requesting to test at a non-college testing center, you are required to provide this form to your proctor to complete. It is recommended to start this process no later than two weeks prior to testing. This process takes longer to approve the proctor to administer the exam. Please provide the link to your proctor and ask them to complete the form. If this form is not received from your proctor, your site will not be approved. There are no expectations.
