On-Site Proctoring
If your syllabus indicates that your exam can be supervised by an on-site proctor, or that you are required to find an on-site proctor, there are a few things you’ll need to know:
- For every on-site proctored exam, students are responsible for following the GCPS process:
- Locate an acceptable on-site proctor, obtain the proctor’s contact information, and schedule each exam with the proctor. For tips, review How to Find an On-Site Proctor.
- Complete the online Request Form in myWSU with the proctor’s contact information. Go to Request My Proctor for details.
- Review the options and determine your choice for Exam Delivery to Proctor and Exam Return to WSU GCPS for paper exams.
- Read and understand your student responsibilities.
- On-site proctors may be able to supervise exams in Canvas or a non-Canvas platform. You must use the proctor’s computer. The proctor’s computer must have a reliable high-speed internet connection, meet the technical requirements of the Canvas learning management system or the non-Canvas platform, and be available for the duration of the exam (check your syllabus).
- Fees vary by proctor, so be sure to ask about the cost and payment options when you contact an on-site proctor.
- We strongly encourage you to request your proctor two weeks in advance to ensure delivery of your exam materials. GCPS cannot guarantee delivery of exam materials for requests made within five business days of the proposed exam date.
- Paper exams, online passwords, and student exam disability accommodations are sent to the proctor by Global Campus Proctoring Services.
- Even if your exam is in Canvas or a non-Canvas platform, an exam packet is sent to the on-site proctor.
