If you are planning to take the major exams of your full online courses off the UA Fort Smith campus, you must complete the Proctor Form and submit it to your instructor at the beginning of the semester. After receiving the approval from your instructor, you may take the major tests and exams in a proctored environment. The following are the UA Fort Smith guidelines regarding major exams for full online courses:
- The student, in collaboration with the faculty, is responsible for securing the off-campus examination site.
- Examination sites must be approved in advance by the faculty teaching the course with faculty notification to the Dean. Alternate examination procedures must be approved in advance by the Dean.
- Approved sites may include other institutions of higher learning, secondary schools, and for-profit examination centers.
- Proctors at an approved site must certify that the examination was completed under supervision.
- The student is responsible for any costs incurred for testing at an off-campus site.
