Proctoring Fees

For exams that are administered online or remotely, it is required that UTMB verify student identity. While UTMB does not charge a fee for this service, there may be additional fees for proctored examinations or other proctored activities charged by non-UTMB facilities or by non-UTMB proctors such as ProctorU. These fees are the responsibility of and must be paid directly by the student to the facility or proctor.
