• A photo ID is required for all testing.

• Students taking DMACC make-up tests are required to know the last name of the instructor.

• If you have an approved accommodation from Disability Services that requires the test be read for you via Kurzweil or you need a quiet room for testing, please complete the Ankeny Campus Test Accommodation Request for each exam you take in the Ankeny Testing Center so the Testing Center can reserve a room for you.

• Cell phones, pagers, FitBits, smart watches and other electronic devices are not allowed in the Testing Center.

• Food and beverages are not allowed in the Testing Center.

• Non-DMACC students: Distance testing is a service provided for non-DMACC students who wish to have their test proctored at a DMACC Testing Center. These outside testers are charged $20/test with one exception - if the tester attends an Iowa Community College and is taking an exam for a credit course, the fee is waived due to a reciprocity agreement between all Iowa Community Colleges. All incurred fees are payable on the day of the exam.
