Approve Students for Testing
After students sign in and select tests, you must verify that their settings and accommodations are correct before approving them for testing. When students are awaiting approval, the Approvals tab becomes active and shows you how many students are awaiting approval.
- The TA Site limits the maximum number of students that can join a given test session. If you receive an error message indicating this limit is exceeded, a separate user will need to set up an additional test session for the remaining students.
To approve students for testing:
1.Once students request approval, a notification appears on the Approvals tab. Open this tab to view a table of students awaiting approval.
2.To check a student’s test settings and accommodations, select 
for that student. The student’s information appears in the Test Settings window. This window groups test settings by their area of need.
a.If any settings are incorrect, update them as required. Students should not begin testing until their settings are correct.
b.Do one of the following:
- To confirm the settings, select Set. You will still need to approve the student for testing.
- To confirm the settings and approve the student, select Set & Approve. Students can begin testing once you approve them.
3.Repeat step 2 for each student on the Approvals tab.
4.Optional: To deny a student access to the test, select 
for that student. In the window that appears, enter an optional reason for denying the student and select Deny. The student receives the denial explanation and is logged out. They can still request access to the test again.
5.To approve students from the Approvals tab, select 
in the Actions column to approve an individual student, or select Approve All Students to approve every student currently listed in the table.
