Proctoring Services
Proctoring services are available at Savannah State University (SSU) during regularly scheduled testing sessions. A proctored exam is administered by an individual who supervises the student while they are taking the exam. The use of proctoring services is to ensure the integrity and security of the exam in a secure environment. SSU is a member of the National College Testing Consortium which provides proctoring services for SSU students enrolled in online courses and students attending other colleges and universities (non-SSU students). Institutions across the nation utilize SSU as a testing site.
SSU fully-online students needing this service should schedule their free test appointment as soon as possible using the online registration system or visit www.savannahstate.edu/testing (click "Register for Exam.").
Students taking eCore classes must register and take at least one proctored exam for each eCore course enrolled. Registration for eCore proctored exams must be completed through the student's GoVIEW account. Please follow eCore's test registration process to schedule your proctored exam at no cost: Instructions to Register for eCore Exam.
The SSU Testing Center is in Hubert Bldg. A, room 114. All students utilizing SSU Proctoring Services must review and adhere to SSU Test Center Rules and/or rules governed by their home institution. For more information about eCore classes and requirements please go to: https://ecore.usg.edu.
Students may utilize ProctorU, an organization that offers secure, live and automated online proctoring services at anytime and anywhere. Students should consult with the professor of record for approval prior to scheduling an exam through ProctorU.

Non-SSU students
Students who are taking independent study, or online classes at other institutions, may elect to have their exams administered at SSU. The sponsoring school or company must send exams directly to the Testing Office. Included with the exam should be any instructions for the test proctor and necessary forms to be completed and returned. The sponsoring school will determine maximum time limits, allowed materials, and special test conditions. No calculators, notes or books will be allowed unless specified by the sponsoring institution. The cost is $20 per hour.
