What You Need to Know Before Scheduling

The Testing Centers at Fort Steilacoom and Puyallup maintain a secure, standardized testing environment and require test takers to adhere to the following when testing:

  • For proctored exams, a picture ID is required. No exceptions will be made. Some exams require specific forms of government-issued ID.
  • Payment for tests that require fees must be paid to cashiering prior to starting the assessment. Exam fees are non-refundable.
  • Students and community members are prohibited from bringing anything (cell phones, purses, bags, coats, hats, books, food, beverages, etc.) into the Testing Center. We provide lockers for students to secure personal belongings outside the Testing Center.
  • Children are not allowed in the Testing Center.

Please arrive at the Testing Center with sufficient time to complete your test before the center closes.
