policy for e-mailing exams

While the DRC prefers exams to be delivered by instructors, as this provides for any clarification of times and exam instructions, for the convenience of instructors, the DRC will accept e-mailed exams under the following conditions:

  • Exams must be e-mailed to: DRC@southernct.edu
  • Exams must be e-mailed by 8:30am the day the exam is to be taken
  • E-mailed exams must include the test proctoring form, which can downloaded by clicking the following link: test proctoring form. Please fill out this form and attach it with your exam.
  • Due to the large amount of e-mails the DRC receives each day, please write "EXAM" in the subject heading of your e-mail, along with the student's name, so that staff can easily identify the e-mail as an exam.
  • The DRC suggests that you send the exam with a read receipt to ensure the delivery of the exam to the correct location.

Please note: In order to be available to proctor exams for instructors, DRC staff cannot return exams physically or via e-mail. Instructors can choose to pick up exams in person, send a department secretary to pick up the exam, or have the student return the exam to the department via a sealed envelope.

As with all electronic communication, confidentiality cannot be guaranteed, but the following safeguards will be taken:

  • E-mailed exams will only be opened and printed by DRC staff
  • E-mailed exams will be deleted from the e-mail once the exam has been printed
  • Printed exams will be placed in an envelope and put into a drawer where all exams are kept
  • When the exam is complete, the exam will be sealed in an envelope and returned to the exam drawer

If you have questions, please call the DRC at 203-392-6828 or stop by EN-C105.
