Correspondence Tests, General Information

The Testing Center at San Francisco State University provides a service to proctor paper and pencil and computer-based correspondence exams from other domestic (U.S) colleges and universities. Exams from other institutions must be first received by the Testing Center, prior to scheduling a test date and time. To have a test proctored, the exam from the originating institution must be directed to:

San Francisco State University

Testing Center

1600 Holloway Avenue

SSB Building, Room 101

San Francisco, CA 94132

Attention: B. Anderson

Once you have requested for an exam to be sent from the originating college or university to the Testing Center, please allow 3-5 business days before calling to schedule an appointment to take the exam.

The proctoring fee is $25.00 per hour and is payable by check only. Test proctoring is arranged by appointment during our normal business hours 8:30AM – 5:00PM (exams must be completed by 5PM) Monday – Friday.

To cancel or reschedule your request must be made at least 24-hours in advance of your appointment time. A cancellation, reschedule or “no-show” less than a 24-hour advance notice will prompt the return of your exam to the originating institution and no future appointments will be scheduled.

If you require special testing accommodations or for more information, please phone 415-338-2271 or send an e-mail to testing@sfsu.edu.
