Request a testing appointment

Students with approved accessibility accommodations related to testing have the option to write with their campus Test Centre. Students may request an appointment through the Test Centre section of Accommodate.

Before requesting a testing appointment, students need to ensure their semester request has been submitted in Accommodate and approved by Accessible Services, and all their testing accommodations are in place.

It is the student's responsibility to keep track of upcoming test dates and to request testing appointments at least 7 days (14 days for midterms and finals) in advance of the test date. Please refer to the following resources for a walk-through of how to request a testing appointment in Accommodate:

If you are experiencing difficulties submitting your request, please contact the Test Centre at TestingServices@conestogac.on.ca.


Troubleshooting

If you are having issues booking, check the following:

  • Your semester request for the course is approved.
  • Ensure the "Date Range" includes when your test will be taking place.
  • The test is at least 7 days away (14 days away for midterms and finals).

If you are still having issues, contact your campus Test Centre for additional support.
