Appointments

Kirkwood Test Center administers exams by appointment only. Please visit our Schedule an appointment help article for more information.

Walk-ins are only accepted if the Test Center is fully booked. Kirkwood students must register for appointments by first signing into Talon to ensure their appointments are booked properly and any approved accommodations are attached.

If you arrive at the Test Center without an appointment, we will ask you to register using our iPad kiosk or your smartphone. Please be prepared to wait until the staff have assisted test takers with appointments, have prepared your exam, and a seat is available.
