Scheduling Exams

At the beginning of each semester, you must initiate your semester via CUNY Accommodate to notify your course instructor(s) of your accommodations. Introduce yourself and confirm they have received your current semester accommodation letter via CUNY Accommodate.

All exams should be taken as close to the time the class meets on the day the class meets. If your exam is outside our proctoring hours (Monday–Friday, 9am–5pm), please discuss with your course instructor an alternative date/time during our proctoring hours.

Steps to Schedule an Exam

The Testing Room option in CUNY Accommodate provides exam booking. This option is only visible to students with approved testing accommodations who have submitted a semester request for the current semester.

1. Log on to CUNY Accommodate using CUNYFirst Credentials.
2. Click on the "Testing Room" tab in the sidebar.
3. Click on the "New Booking Request" button, located toward the bottom of the screen.
4. Select the course you have your exam in from the "Course" dropdown menu. The page will then be reloaded. If your course is not there please contact the CSA via accessibility@citytech.cuny.edu and CC Testing Coordinator Jade Warrington - JADE.WARRINGTON85@citytech.cuny.edu to have your exam scheduled.
5. Press the "Next Step" button and begin by selecting the date your exam will take place.
6. For "Select a Space" select "City Tech L-237" which will lead to a drop-down menu of available exam times.
7. From the dropdown menu, click on the "Request" button to the right of the space and time you selected. You will be asked to "Confirm Exam Booking" by reviewing the date, time, and place you selected. Please note, the earliest students will be able to book their exam for will be 9am as that is when the office opens and the availability for the testing room. Exams starting earlier will be modified by the testing coordinator after students submit their request for 9am.
8. A popup window will appear. You may write the name of the exam/quiz using the space provided next to where "Exam (e.g. exam 2, quiz 4, etc.)" appears. If applicable, use the "Alternative Date/Time" section to let the CSA know that you have received permission from your course instructor to take the exam in question on an alternative date or at an alternative time.
9. Click "Submit Request" to finish submitting your exam booking request. You will then see your request listed underneath "Pending Test Accommodation Appointment Requests". When the request is approved, you will see it listed underneath "Approved Test Accommodation Appointment Requests".
