Need an Exam Proctor?

Are you taking a distance ed course this semester?  Do you need to find a proctor for your exam?  Check out these resources that may help.

There is a great interactive map of proctoring sites approved by the UNC system. Check it out. Included on the map is the location, what is provided, and the cost at each site.

Also, Wake County Public Library branches provide free proctoring services. Each branch website has a link to information about proctoring.

Book early to make sure you can get a proctor for the date and time you want.  Good luck on your exam!
