Testing Center
The Testing Center provides accessible and secure testing facilities for students and the community. College course exams do not require an appointment. However, most other exams (correspondence, CLEP, HiSET, HESI, etc.) do require an appointment and may require a test fee.
To schedule your exam and pay your proctor fee for the CLEP, DSST, CERTIPORT, or HESI exam, visit https://www.registerblast.com/pstcc. The Testing Center’s hours may vary by campus.
