Test Proctoring Services

Test proctoring services at UWF Emerald Coast.


Test proctoring services are available at UWF Emerald Coast during regular office hours by appointment on a first come, first serve basis. Students needing this service should make an appointment as soon as they become aware of their test dates.

Students may be required by their professor to complete a proctor approval form (see below). The student should complete Section A of the form then email or hand deliver the form to the applicable testing office.

Proctoring services are free of charge for UWF students; for non-UWF students, the charge is $25 per exam. To make a payment, please pay through UWF Transact.

UWF Emerald Coast Proctoring Policy

  1. UWF students must have approval by their professor/instructor.
  2. Proctoring appointments should be made as early as possible in the semester.
    1. Cancelling or Rescheduling Appointment: Due to the large numbers of students seeking proctoring services and the limited number of appointments available, if you need to cancel a scheduled appointment, please contact Andrea Rymer or David Gibson no later than 48 hours prior to your exam time, or as soon as possible if due to illness.
    2. Late Arrival: A student will be considered “late” if they show up for their exam more than 15 minutes after their scheduled proctor time. If the student notifies the proctor before the 15-minute grace period expires, they may, at the discretion of the proctor, still be allowed to take the test if student agrees to a pro-rated exam time limit. If the student does not call before the 15-minute grade period expires, they will be asked to reschedule their appointment.
    3. No Show: A student will be considered a “no show” if they miss their scheduled exam time without calling to notify our office 48 hours prior to their appointment.
      1. First Offense: The student will receive an e-mail after the first missed exam time, reminding them of the policy and advising them that they will be subject to the “no show” policy during the semester.
      2. Second Offense: The student will receive an e-mail after the second missed exam time, informing them that they will no longer be able to schedule proctored exams for the semester at the Emerald Coast Campus.
  3. The contact for proctoring appointments at the Emerald Coast Campus is David Gibson; 850.863.6584, dgibson@uwf.edu.
    1. Exams for individual students will be proctored during regular business hours only. David’s hours are Monday through Thursday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Fridays 8 a.m. to noon. All exams must be completed by closing time.
    2. Whenever a class or “group” proctoring session is established, students will be expected to test with that group instead of individually. After hour proctoring is available for groups of 6 or more students. Group proctoring is usually scheduled by the professor/instructor.
  4. There is no proctoring fee for UWF students however there is a $25.00 proctoring fee for non-UWF students.
