On-Campus Proctoring

Due to OHIO courses moving to remote and online delivery for the remainder of the Summer 2019-2020 semester, in-person proctoring locations on ALL Ohio University campuses have been closed. The Ohio University Testing Center services outlined on this page are unavailable until further notice.

Proctored testing resources are available through Online Proctoring.
