For Faculty

Important Update re: FINAL EXAMS

The ATC is NO longer able to accept NEW requests for the FINAL EXAM PERIOD.

Thank you for your continued advocacy, and for trusting the ATC as a partner and resource for your university testing needs. In order to continue to be able to meet your needs, and with the support of the Office of the Provost, the ATC has been able to expand to include additional space and also extend our testing hours, for the Fall 2025 Final Exam period. Our staff will now offer evening exams from December 11th through 17th!  However, even with these enhanced efforts, we have met capacity for this semester’s 5-day Final Exam period. 

Faculty Going forward, please work with students directly to develop a contingency plan to implement their DAI accommodations or make-up needs.

Students who have not yet made an appointment should check the ATC Student Portal immediately and often for openings. Updates occur in real time 24/7! Please contact your faculty to make a contingency plan if you are not able to confirm an appointment within one week of your final exam due date.

All – please be conscientious about cancellations. No shows impact everyone.

Your Friendly Academic Testing Center Staff,

Lisa, Teryn, Bobbie, Le, Philip, Marie, and Rachel!

Process for Using the Academic Testing Center (ATC)

See a complete outline of the steps to using the ATC

Academic Testing Center (ATC) primarily administers paper-based in a secure location on behalf of URI faculty. Examsoft, Brightspace, and other computer based exams are also proctored using the student’s device at the instructor’s request. Exam accommodations coordinated by Disability, Access and Inclusion, faculty approved make-ups, and culturally inclusive assessments welcome.

Faculty determine if a student has a University approved absence, according to Chapter 8 of the University Manual, which would qualify them to test at the ATC and/or if they prefer the ATC proctor the exam accommodations determined by URI’s office of Disability, Access, and Inclusion (DAI). Students should provide faculty with DAI documentation directly, not bring it to the ATC. It is the ATC’s role to administer exams, not determine eligibility.
