A variety of testing services are available to support both current students and members of the community at our Windsor, Chatham, and Downtown campuses. These services include Accommodated Testing for students with disabilities, Make-Up Testing, Admission Testing for mature applicants, and external invigilation for individuals writing tests from other institutions or organizations. Each campus has its own procedures and contact information, which can be found below.
Testing Services (For Current Students)
Accommodated Testing (New Process)
We have introduced a new online Accommodated Test Booking system that simplifies the process for students registered with Accessibility Services and streamlines test management for faculty and staff.
Students now book their own accommodated tests online. Once a booking is submitted, professors receive an automatic notification and are responsible for approving the request and uploading the test. This process:
- Empowers students to choose when and how they use accommodations
- Reduces prep work for students who opt to write in class
- Consolidates test booking, uploads, and accommodations in one platform
Student Instructions: Booking a Test Using Accommodations
Students can choose to use accommodations for all, some, or only major assessments. They can also decide which accommodations to apply for each test.
Key Rules:
- Bookings must be made at least 7 Business Days in advance
- Tests should be written at the same time as your class, unless your professor approves a different time
- Book through the Accommodated Test Booking tile in MySt.Clair

Faculty Instructions: Approving a Student Booking
When a student books a test, faculty receive an automated email notification. Professors must:
- Log in to the system
- Confirm the test details
- Upload the test file at least 2 business days in advance
- Add any test-specific instructions (e.g., calculator allowed, Akindi required)

Make-Up Testing
Make-up tests are scheduled when a student is unable to write a test at the regularly scheduled class time. Students and faculty must coordinate the new date and time within the periods supported by their campus Testing Services.
How do faculty book a make-up test?
- For all students: complete the Make-Up Test Form and attach the test.
Submit the test and form at least 48 hours in advance, either:
- As a hard copy to Student Services, or
- By email to your campus Testing Services department.
Make-up test times:
- Windsor Campus: 3:00 PM – 9:00 PM, Monday to Friday
- Downtown and Chatham Campuses: Coordinated individually with Testing Services
