The USC Columbia testing coordinator will contact the student ONLY if there is a problem. Exams may be taken at USC Columbia between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. during the fall and spring semesters and between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. during the summer.

Students who wish to take exams at other sites must contact the appropriate site's testing coordinator. Exams must be taken during each site's designated testing hours.

The following sites are the ONLY locations where examinations may be taken. It the student's responsibility to inform Distributed Learning of the preferred testing site. The student must contact the coordinator at that site at least one week before each exam to schedule a time.
