*If you are taking an exam in an alternative location, you must fill out the Exam Accommodation Request Form. This form must be filled out at least 10 BUSINESS DAYS before the exam, but we ask that you submit the request as early as possible. If you know your exams at the beginning of the term , you may let us know at that time. This ensures the approved academic accommodations are met. If you do not fill out the form and return it in time, then you may not be able to take the exam in an alternative location at a preferred time or date. It is your responsibility to fill out this form and discuss these exam accommodations with your professor(s). If you have any questions please contact The Center for Academic Success & Engagement (CASE) at accommodations@saintpeters.edu.
