DSST exams are offered daily at the University of Indianapolis: Monday through Thursday beginning as early as 11 am or as late as 5 pm (10 am to 2:30 pm on Fridays). No advance appointment necessary (but you should call before you come to make sure the proctor is available: 317-788-3393).
If you want to register in advance, stop by Esch Hall 103M during the hours of 11 am to 7 pm weekdays and 10-4:30 on Fridays. Ask for the Testing Administrator in Esch Hall 103M. You pay a $12.00 administrative fee at the time you register for an exam, payable by cash only. The $70.00 test fee (goes up to $80.00 on Nov. 1, 2008, subject to change) is payable on the day of the test, before testing begins, by American Express, VISA, or MasterCard.
DSST requires a photo ID for positive identification before the test may begin, such as driver's license, current passport, state-issued ID card, employee ID card, student ID card, etc. No exceptions!
All DSST exams are also available in the traditional paper-based test booklet format. Contact our office to order an exam if you don't want to take the exam on computer.
Don't register for an exam at the same time you have a class! For planning purposes, testing blocks are two hours each.
Allow 4-6 weeks for the DSST Program to report your test score to you after the test date (scores are immediate for internet-based exams). The University of Indianapolis will NOT call the DSST Program to obtain your score.
