TESTING NEWS & ANNOUNCEMENTS

NEW MAKE-UP TESTING PROCedures FALL 2025

Beginning Fall 2025, the FAU Testing Center will implement a new policy regarding make-up exam services. To better support instructional needs and manage testing resources efficiently, make-up exam services will only be available to faculty teaching courses with an enrollment of 100 or more students. To facilitate this change, the Testing Center will offer six dedicated make-up exam slots per day specifically for these large-enrollment courses. This change aims to streamline the make-up exam process, reduce end-of-semester congestion, and better support both students and faculty in managing makeup course assessments.
