The EPC operates by appointment only. Please use the “Schedule Now” button located to the right, to book appointments.

The EPC will provide scratch paper and a calculator if permitted for your assessment.

  • UCF ID: A valid, working, and scannable UCF ID is required for entry.
  • Optional Items: You may bring your own pen or calculator (see allowed calculators on our policy page). Foam earplugs are also permitted to reduce noise distractions.
  • Personal Belongings: Prior to checking in, stow all personal items in a locker or leave them at home.
  • Hand Inspection: Be prepared to show the front and back of your hands to the check-in staff.
  • Seating: When possible, please leave one seat between yourself and other students.

What not to bring/Do

  • Items: Food, drinks, books, bags, and pencils are not allowed.
  • Electronics: Unauthorized electronic devices of any kind are prohibited.

Electronics Policy (Effective Spring 2025)

While we strongly advise against bringing electronic devices into the EPC, powered-off devices stored in your pocket are permitted. Any visible or audible device activity will result in you being escorted out, your exam being submitted as-is, and your instructor being notified.
