Instructors requiring proctored test(s) might find the following statement helpful to insert into their syllabus. Please edit/delete the proctoring service you are NOT using (either Proctorio or Respondus) so that students know which platform they should load on their computers. A Word document of the syllabus statement is available for download.

Syllabus Statement for Proctored Testing
This course has at least one proctored assessment. It is the student’s responsibility to download the appropriate interface for the assessment, either Proctorio or Respondus. Please note that your instructor has limited the date and time that the assessment(s) is available. Please check the course schedule for specific information about the proctored assessment(s).
To download the Proctorio or Respondus interfaces, click the links below:

Note: Proctorio requires the use of the Chrome browser. It will not work with any other browser. Respondus is its own lockdown browser that may be required for some tests.
If you are unable to take your proctored assessments with your own equipment, you may book lab time at the JAC in Oxford to use a webcam/mic-equipped laptop and high-speed internet service at online.olemiss.edu/testschedule
