Booking Testing Center Appointment
Instructions to Bookmark Link for Accommodate Log-In
For scheduling and logistical purposes, the OALA Testing Center requires all appointments for exams to be submitted at least 5 days prior to the exam in the Accommodate link above. The testing center is open M-F from 8AM to 5PM with extended hours during final exams. No test may be scheduled to begin later than 3:30PM during regular academic sessions. Exams scheduled outside of the standard hours of operation will be arranged on a case-by-case basis.
Reminder: The deadline for scheduling finals exams for all students for Spring 2026 is Thursday, April, 30 2026 at 5pm CST. Due to the significant logistics and planning that go into making finals equitable and accessible for students, any requests after this deadline will be denied.
As a reminder, per the Office of the Provost, due to various factors, all 7:00 p.m. exams during finals will be administered at 9:00 a.m. on the same day of the scheduled exam. If a student has a finals conflict with the 9:00 a.m. time, OALA will work directly with the student and faculty member in advance to identify an alternative testing time.
