Computerized Testing Options in WisCEL

Quizzes and in-class exams during regularly scheduled course times can be administered at the instructor’s discretion. If you need assistance with computers, technology, software, room setup requests, or test security, please contact WisCEL staff at least one month in advance of your testing date.

Evening exams (e.g., mid-terms) that require computers for students may be scheduled evenings 5:30 pm – 7:00 pm (Monday -Thursday only) throughout the semester in Wendt WisCEL only. Requests for midterm exams (including exam dates and times ) must be submitted before the end of the second week of the semester by emailing WisCEL. Available dates and rooms will be approved and assigned on a first come, first-serve basis.

Final exams that require computers for students may be scheduled during final exam week only. Requests for computerized test administration of final exams in WisCEL must be submitted to WisCEL when you submit your course application. Prior to the semester timetable being released, WisCEL will coordinate with you, your department and college, and the Registrar’s office, to confirm exam dates, times and room assignment. Priority will be given to renewing courses that have held final exams in WisCEL previously. Remaining dates and exam times will be reserved on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Make-up exams and accommodated testing rooms and computers may be reserved for any WisCEL course quiz or exam. Requests for these testing options should be sent to WisCEL no later than two weeks before the exam to ensure we can provide the appropriate room and resources. Requests should include details such as day, time, type of accommodation required, number of students, technology and support needs.
