Academic Advising

Dr. Mulcahy also works closely with students admitted on academic probation, those on academic probation and students re-admitted on academic probation.

In addition, any student with an unavoidable absence should contact Dr. Mulcahy, who will notify the appropriate professors and/or administrative offices.

Test Proctoring

To have an exam proctored in the Student Success Center students must contact their professor and ask them to complete the Exam Request Form (Purple Form). The professor will complete this electronic form and submit it to the Student Success Center.

After the online form has been completed, students can come to the SSC during any of the below times to take an exam. Tests are proctored in the Student Success Center room 106. Proctoring is done at the discretion of the professor, so it is important to discuss it with your instructor first.

Testing Times:

• Monday-Thursday: 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. & 6:00-9:00 p.m.
• Friday: 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
