  • You must present a valid photo I.D. This may include a current driver’s license or state issued ID card, WC student I.D., current alien registration/passport, or military I.D. You will not be allowed to take a test without proper identification. Expired IDs are not valid.
  • All students taking on-line tests must know their user name and password to sign on to their class.
