Policies and Procedures

Test candidates must arrive early enough to complete testing by the time the Testing
Center closes.

Schedule your exam at least 24 hours in advance using the online scheduler.

You must show Photo I.D. before being given any test. Your driver’s license, passport or
other government issued Photo I.D. are acceptable forms. Many tests require two forms of
I.D. Current student ID’s are acceptable only for SJC student exams, NOT national exams.

PROHIBITED ITEMS may be stored in one of our lockers. Testing candidates may NOT bring
the following into the testing room:
Purses, books and backpacks
Cell phones, MP3 players, car key fobs, cameras, or other electronic devices
Food, candy, gum, cough drops or beverages
Hats and hoodies
Watches, digital or analog

If examinees wear excessive perfume, cologne, or other strong smelling lotions/sprays, they
could be asked to reschedule the exam.

We cannot assist in your instruction. Please do not ask us to review test answers. This not
only compromises the security of the test, but slows down the process for everyone else.

Special accommodations due to a disability or medical condition must be arranged in
advance with the Director of Testing and the Students with Disabilities Office. Appropriate
documentation will be required.

Everything you need for the actual test will be provided. You will NOT be allowed to take
any materials into the testing room, unless specified by your instructor.

If scratch paper is authorized by your exam, we will supply scratch paper. All scratch
paper—used and unused—must be turned in with the exam. We will provide writing
utensils, if required.

If you are ill or have a fever, please call to reschedule. We do not want to pass along the flu
or other contagious illnesses.

Only testing candidates are allowed in our testing rooms or waiting areas. The SJC Testing
Center staff cannot be responsible for children or adults who require care and supervision.
Do not expect family members and others to wait for you in our waiting area.
Academic Honesty
San Juan College believes that the basis for personal and academic development is honesty. Personal
commitment, honest work, and honest achievement are necessary characteristics for an educated
person. Dishonesty is unacceptable.
Instances of academic dishonesty of any kind--using unauthorized materials, sharing information with
another examinee, using technology inappropriately, misrepresenting oneself as someone else, or any
other method—will not be tolerated. Examinees found to be cheating while testing in the SJC Testing
Center will be stopped and the exam and any notes or other materials being used will be collected. The
exam will be marked as Invalid, and the exam and any materials being used will be housed in the SJC
Testing Center.
Academic Honesty Agreement
By enrolling in San Juan College, I have agreed to abide by the policies and regulations of SJC including
those in the Academic Honesty Rules and in the Student Handbook. MY SIGNATURE HERE
INDICATES THAT I UNDERSTAND THAT THE PENALTY FOR ACADEMIC DISHONESTY OF ANY
KIND IN THE SJC TESTING CENTER IS RETENTION OF THE TEST IN THE TEST CENTER AS AN
INVALID TEST. ADDITIONALLY, I UNDERSTAND THAT THE PRIVILEGE TO USE THE CENTER
WILL BE REVOKED FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE SEMESTER. THESE PROCEDURES ARE
SEPARATE FROM ANY ACADEMIC PENALTIES IMPOSED BY THE INSTRUCTOR AND/OR FROM
INSTITUTIONAL PENALTIES RELATED TO THE STUDENT HANDBOOK VIOLATION. I understand
that I am entitled to due process via an appeal if I am involved in such an incident.
