Do you need to take an exam or quiz outside of class time? Your instructor can make arrangements for you to take your test or quiz under the watchful eye of our Testing Center staff.
The Testing Centers at Illinois Central College seek to provide the highest quality of testing services for all students, faculty, and members of our community. In compliance with the National College Testing Association (NCTA) Professional Standards and Guidelines, we strive to administer tests in an efficient, secure, and welcoming environment. Our desire is to facilitate access to education and career goals, being aware of and adapting as needs change.
An appointment and a physical, valid photo identification card are required to take an exam. No exceptions will be made. An ICC or other student ID, driver’s license, state ID, or passport are examples of acceptable forms of identification. Without proper ID, students will not be allowed to test. Remind your instructor to submit your exam to the correct Testing Center 24 hours before your scheduled appointment time.

Testing Accommodations for Access Services
We offer students with documented disabilities testing accommodations through Access Services. Some examples of testing accommodations include:
- Extended testing time
- Low distraction testing areas
- The reader or recorded verbal form of exams
- Scribe services to write for students or mark scantrons
Before making an appointment with the Testing Center, students must be approved for the requested accommodations. To gain approval, students should submit documentation of the disability and need for accommodation to the Access Services Department. Once the office approves an accommodation, an accommodation letter, good for one academic year will be issued. Students will share the accommodation letter with their respective faculty member(s) and then may make an appointment for exam(s). Students may apply for testing accommodations and upload supporting documentation on our secure online site.
