On Campus ProctorU Stations

Each campus and the Brunswick University Center will have ProctorU stations in their respective TLC, OpenLab, or Testing Center. These stations are limited in both number and available time slots, so they should be reserved for students who do not have access at home to the technology required by ProctorU. These stations are in a shared environment that may have staff and other students present.

You may also need to download and install the Guardian Browser onto the ProctorU Station from your ProctorU account homepage before taking you exam. Watch the Downloading Guardian Browser video for detailed instructions.
