Welcome to the Testing Center!

The Testing Center provides testing services to support the academic and professional goals of students and visitors. Our center houses several private testing rooms and a computer lab.

We are open Monday - Friday from 9:00am - 5:00pm, though hours may vary during certain times of the year. The Center is located in the Student Success Center, room 3.136. Parking is available in the lot across the street next to the Library. Visit the Business Office for a temporary parking pass, as parking is enforced Monday - Friday from 7:00am - 5:00pm.

Rules and Procedures

Electronic devices are not permitted unless permission is given by the proctor or instructor. Montana Tech has a zero-tolerance policy for academic dishonesty, and all testers must follow our Student Code of Conduct

Students taking placement exams must pay the one-time $25 testing fee before they can take their exams. The fee can be paid in-person at our Business Office or by calling 406-496-4250. If you do not know which placement exam to take, please contact an admissions representative

Seats fill up fast during finals week, so flexibility for exam dates and times may be required, and we urge students and faculty to book final exam appointments with as much advanced notice as possible.
