New Exam Information

Your course may require proctored midterm and final exams.

Note:

• ProctorU exams for UIUC courses will require use of the Guardian Secure Browser. 
• There is a Box Account Test on Your Nexus Dashboard that must be completed before taking your exams. The ProctorU proctor will be unable to find your exam until this process is completed.

* Proctored midterm exams will use ProctorU's Review+. Before scheduling an exam, please read the Review+ (Guardian) Instructions for Test-takers.

* Some courses may include exams that are not proctored. These exams are administered using the NetMath Online Exam System (NOES) 

* Final exams must be taken using ProctorU's Live+. Before scheduling an exam, please read the Live+ (Guardian) Instructions for Test-takers. 

Refer to your Nexus Dashboard at: https://nexus.netmath.illinois.edu for instructions on how to schedule an exam with ProctorU. You will find links to schedule your specific exam on your Dashboard.

Exams taken through ProctorU are free of charge to students registered  in the courses listed on this page. NetMath will cover the cost of exams. 

It is the student's responsibility to ensure: 

• They meet ProctorU's technical requirements prior to scheduling an exam.
• Their exam setup complies with requirements listed within their course LMS, including creating and establishing access to their University of Illinois Box account. Instructions can be found at: Instructions for Using Box. 
• You must schedule your exams at least 72 hours in advance to avoid paying an additional premium fee of $8 - $12, as explained below. The student is responsible for these fees.

  • Take It Soon: "Take It Soon" allows candidates/test-takers to schedule a test 24-72 hours before the selected test time and incurs an additional fee of $8.00 USD.

  • Take In Now: "Take It Now" allows candidates/test-takers to schedule a test less than 24 hours before the selected test time and incurs an additional fee of $12.00 USD.

  • When students encounter technical issues during their exam they may be able to reschedule within the 24-72 hour timeframe without being charged a fee. The decision of revoking these fees will be made by ProctorU.

Students may choose to take exams in person with an approved proctor.

Any in-person proctoring arrangements must be approved by NetMath within two weeks of the course start date.
