For Current Students

The Testing Center (Redding Main Campus | Room 2215) can accommodate make-up testing. Make-Up testing is offered by appointment only. 

​This proctoring service is intended to accommodate individual students who need to make up exams due to school related or excused conflicts. Examples include student-athletes who miss an exam due to an athletic contest, students required to serve jury duty, students attending a college-sponsored field trip, or students who are experiencing a personal emergency.

Make-up Exam Process

If a student needs to make up a test, we request that they please schedule their appointment at least two to three business days in advance by calling the Testing Center at (530) 242-7751 during business hours.

​The student will then inform the instructor regarding the appointment date and time. The Testing Office will send a follow-up email to the instructor to notify him/her of the date and time of the exam and to request a copy of the test.  

The test should arrive in the Testing Center via email (testcenter@shastacollege.edu) or the Testing Center mailbox (Building 100) at least one (1) business day prior to the scheduled appointment. Please include a ​ Make-Up Test Instruction Fillable Form (PDF) with the exam to describe what is allowed – including time and materials for each student testing. We ask that the instructor please date and sign the form. Unfortunately, we are unable to deliver or pick up exams to/from classrooms or instructor offices.

Please remember that all testing requests need to be scheduled at least three (3) business days prior for regular exams, 1 week in advance for midterms, and 2 weeks in advance for all final exams.

For PACE students, please make sure you have trained with our staff to learn how to utilize the AIM program to schedule your exam/quiz online.

Please direct questions or concerns to testcenter@shastacollege.edu.

The Testing Center can also accommodate students who are in PACE (Partners in Access to College Education for students with disabilities) by offering test facilitation. 

Examples of test facilitation include:  proctoring of exams, use of scribes, exams in audio format, extended test time, enlargement of exams, exams in braille, use of readers, special lighting, use of a word processor, or the need for a reduced distraction environment.

While most tests are usually given in our Testing Center lab/office in Building 2200, Room 2215, some may continue to be facilitated in PACE. PACE services and testing accommodations are also available for students in Tehama, Trinity, and Eastern Shasta County, as well as for students taking classes at our Health Sciences and University Center. Students taking an exam at an extended education site should note which campus they attend when scheduling their exam. Testing Center staff will reach out to the student to confirm the time, date, and location of the exam/quiz.

Please remember that all testing requests need to be scheduled at least two (2) busi​ness days prior for regular exams, 1 week in advance for midterms, and 2 weeks in advance for all final exams.

Students taking audio exams should request a test time as early as possible to ensure conversion of a test to audio by the requested test time. Testing schedules should be on your class syllabus. Please make sure to plan ahead.

For PACE students, please make sure you have trained with our staff on how to schedule your exam/quiz through your MyShasta Portal.
