Exam Exceptions

If you are allowing a student to take an exam outside of the normal date rage of the exam, you should make note of it in the Notes to Proctor field in MATS. Technically, this isn't required for Canvas exams, since you can adjust the access dates by student in Canvas, but making a note of this in MATS helps avoid confusion with testing center staff and certified proctors. If a student tries to make a testing reservation outside of the testing dates in MATS, and there is no note permitting them to do so, their testing reservation may be cancelled.

Because our testing center staff can access exams and exam access codes outside of the date range specified in MATS but our certified proctors around the world cannot, students are encouraged to call ahead of time to their proctoring location to make arrangements for these exceptions.
