INSTRUCTIONS

Please complete the proctor approval form below to identify a proctor for your online course exam(s). Your department will verify and approve each proctor requested to determine if the requested proctor is acceptable. If approved, you and your proctor will receive an email notification confirming the proctor has been added to the MSU Engineering Proctor Portal, and will include links to the Student Responsibilities and Proctor Responsibilities pages. Please make arrangements with your proctor to schedule your exam(s).

*Please allow 5 business days for proctor approval. Business days do not include weekends.

*Your department is under no obligation to approve every proposed proctor. Proctors will only be approved if they meet the proctor guidelines. Please do not submit a proctor request for people who don't fall within the guidelines. If it is unclear whether the proposed proctor meets the proctor guidelines your department associate chair will decide whether the proctor is approved.

Special Accommodations
Do you require special accommodations?

If special accommodations are needed, have you contacted the Resource Center for Persons with Disabilities (https://www.rcpd.msu.edu/)? You will have to contact RCPD if you need extended time or any other accommodations before they will be approved. You can contact RCPD at their contact page (https://www.rcpd.msu.edu/about/teamrcpd) or call (517) 884-RCPD (4-7273).

*Your Instructor will also need to contact your department graduate secretary and let us know of RCPD approval so that we can proctor your test correctly or forward that information to off-campus Proctors.

Proctor Information

(If you are using a Proctor overseas, it must be at a University or another Testing Center. We will not approve your proctor if we cannot locate them in a campus directory or validate that they work in a Testing Center. If your exams are all on D2L and you have a good internet connection, we may be able to have you take the exams by using a 3rd party vendor. There will be an additional fee for this. )
