Welcome to the A&H Testing Center!
Sponsored by the Division of Undergraduate Education (UE) and the Division of Arts & Humanities (A&H) in partnership with the Disabled Students' Program (DSP) and the Berkeley Language Center (BLC), the A&H Testing Center (AHTC) provides final exam accommodations for students with disabilities who are approved for 150% extended time and a low-distraction testing environment. Launched as a pilot in Spring 2025, the Center has continued to expand and will be offered again in Fall 2026.
This pilot is complementary to the existing proctoring program at DSP. DSP determines what accommodations should be provided to students with disabilities, and academic departments and faculty members are primarily responsible for providing testing accommodations to students with disabilities. DSP’s existing proctoring center prioritizes proctoring students who require accommodations like 200%+ extended time, room alone, scribe, and use of a computer or assistive technology. Many students with 150% extended time and reduced distraction are accommodated within departments. As an additional resource for faculty members in the Arts & Humanities, we are now excited to provide the A&H Testing Center.
Eligibility
The A&H Testing Center is a pop-up pilot project to support final exam administration for students with testing accommodations who are taking courses in the Division of Arts & Humanities in the College of Letters & Science. While we hope to expand this service in the future, for now, eligibility is restricted to instructors and students associated with courses offered by departments in the Division of Arts & Humanities. For any questions about who is currently eligible to use this service, please contact ahtesting@berkeley.edu.
