Summer 2009 May 18 - August 18

The Testing Center is a program of the Center for Academic Excellence (CAE).

The Center for Academic Excellence is closed for lunch 1 - 2 p.m. weekdays as well as for the following dates and times:

  • May 23 - 25 for Memorial Day Holiday Weekend 

  • July 3 - 5 for Independence Day Holiday Weekend

  • August 19 - 30 for the Semester Break

The CAE Testing Center provides a secure environment for makeup examinations and for students enrolled in FDIS or online classes offered at Metropolitan State University that require proctored examinations.

Classroom instructors use the Testing Center for individual students who could not attend a regular class session and who have permission to make up the test. Instructors for online and FDIS courses should schedule tests with firm completion dates spread across the duration of the course.

Testing for coursework will be conducted on both Minneapolis and Midway campuses. Students should schedule appointments to take tests in advance in order to be assured a seat.

For students taking Metropolitan State courses who cannot travel to either the Minneapolis or the Midway campus to take exams, we help make arrangements for a proctor at a convenient location.

We no longer offer proctoring services for the CLEP program or for courses taught at other universities.

Disability related testing accomodations may be obtained on our Disability Services Web site.

Diagnostic Assessment

Diagnostic placement tests in reading, writing and mathematics are required of all incoming students and are free of charge. These computerized or paper/pencil tests are administered by appointment. Visit Diagnostic Assessment at Metropolitan State.
