  • Upload the exam to the portal 24 hours a day, at your convenience
  • Update exam dates and durations as they change
  • Receive email reminders once a week and two days prior to a scheduled exam
     
How will I know which students are taking the exam?

The Instructor Online Services Portal provides a list of all students receiving testing accommodations.

Click on the "Courses" tab. You will see a list of all of your courses for the semester. The "Tests and Exams" link(s) with a yellow star next to it indicates a student has requested an exam in this course. Click the link next to the yellow star to view the list.
 

Are cell phones allowed in the testing environment?

No. The Moses Exam Center strictly enforces a no cell phone policy. 

How do you ensure the academic integrity and security?

Each testing room at the Moses Exam Center is equipped with cameras which are monitored by Exam Staff at all times.

My exam has a powerpoint, audio files, or other media. Will the Moses Exam Center be able to administer the media to the student?

Yes. Please indicate what media is needed in the comments section when you input the exam Information for the exam.  

How do I adjust the time parameters for an online NYU classes exam?

Create a group with a non-identifiable title by selecting 'Manage Groups' under settings. Duplicate the assessment you'd like to administer under the 'Tests and Quizzes' tool. Once the assessment is created, the amount of time can be modified by reviewing the 'Timed Assessment' area.

For more detailed instructions, please email csaexams@nyu.edu.

How would a professor manage the accommodation of "permission to take reasonable breaks without time penalty during exams" for an exam which is being proctored remotely?

For students approved for "reasonable breaks without time penalty" who are taking remotely-proctored exams, our recommendation is that 15 minutes be added for each hour of exam time.  For example: For a 2 hour exam, the student would be allowed 2 hours and 30 minutes.  Other options may be considered on a case-by-case basis.

How do I accommodate for a time limit extended take home exam?

Take home exams in which the exam is essentially the same as the exam in the classroom, and for which the time limit has already been significantly extended beyond the time limit for classroom presentation (i.e., 24 hours for a 1-2 hour exam), are generally not given additional time extensions (i.e., 1.5x or 2x). Requests for additional time in those cases will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Please contact your Accessibility Specialist with any questions or concerns.
