Quick Facts
- Sometimes, the entire LTC is closed to individual testing as a particular class may be using all of our resources. It is very important that you call ahead to assure that we are able to meet your testing needs.
- Make sure you allow ample time to complete a test. Generally, during Fall and Winter terms we do not start tests after 7 pm Monday – Thursday or after 2 pm on Friday. If you feel you can not complete a test by the published closing time, you must schedule an earlier testing time.
- You must bring a photo ID to the testing center or you will not be allowed to test. If you do not have a photo ID with you please go to Student Services to obtain a waiver form. Student Services is only open until 5pm during the week. After 5pm you must have a photo ID with you in order to test.
- Paper & pencil or computerized testers need to be at the LTC at least one hour before closing time to receive and begin a test. For Accuplacer testing, arrive three hours before closing time. On Fridays, Accuplacer testers must begin their testing before 12 noon.
