Proctoring Services

Austin Community College offers test proctoring services for colleges, universities, and businesses within and outside the U.S. Proctored tests are administered at ACC’s Business and Assessment Testing locations at Highland Campus or Round Rock Campus.

Tests administered by ACC primarily are online tests or those that use paper and pencil with an electronically scored answer sheet that is scored by your institution. You may not download software to our computers or bring in outside computers of any kind. If your school requires you to download special software, you must first contact this the Business and Assessment Testing Center office.

Taking a Proctored Exam at ACC

ACC offers proctored exams by appointment at its Highland Campus and Round Rock Campus, Monday through Thursday only. We do not offer testing on Saturdays. All proctoring must be done by 5 p.m.

To schedule an appointment, you must submit the online Exam Registration form and pay applicable exam and proctor fees.

When scheduling your exam, make sure you allow enough time to complete the exam. If you do not schedule your exam based on the time allotted by your school or institution, you will not be allowed to test. Also, make sure the testing center has your test before you make an appointment.

Walk-in appointments or same-day testing may be accommodated for an additional fee (see below) only if space and test materials are available. Same-day testing cannot be accommodated before 9 a.m. For same-day testing, call 512-223-7395 for Highland Campus or 512-223-0158 for Round Rock Campus to confirm the testing center has your test materials and can schedule the test.

Scheduling Your Test

Follow these steps to take a proctored exam through ACC’s Business and Assessment Testing Center:

  1. Have the appropriate official at your school or institution send test requirements and test materials to bact@austincc.edu. You can also mail test requirements and materials to:
    Austin Community College – Business Assessment Center
    ACC Highland Campus Bldg. 1000, Rm. 2226
    6101 Airport Blvd.

  2. Confirm with your school or institution that test materials and requirements have been sent to the ACC Business and Assessment Testing Center, and contact the Business and Assessment Testing Center at 512-223-7395 to confirm we have your exam materials.
  3. Schedule your examination at least one business day in advance through the online Exam Registration form. (Same day testing may be available for an additional fee—see below.) Important: You must pay the minimum $30 proctor fee in advance. You may pay the Proctor fee through Market Place or follow the link in the exam registration form to pay fee. Upon payment, you can enter your receipt number/order number on the form and schedule your test. Any additional fees are due at your scheduled appointment and be required to pay online. 
  4. If your school or institution requires a completed proctor form, send it to the Business Assessment Center by email to bact@austincc.edu.
