Students: Reserve your Exam with the TAC

After viewing this guide, if you have any questions about the process of reserving a seat with the TAC or run into any difficulties, then please contact TAC staff by email (saas.tac.staff@umich.edu) or phone (734-763-1334) and we would be happy to assist you.

Please be sure to communicate with your instructor about accommodated testing plans for the course, and exam details, as much as possible.

Below, you will find a list of step-by-step instructions on how to reserve a seat with the TAC:

1) Once you log-in to Accommodate, select the option “Schedule Exam with TAC” from the left-hand side of the page. If you do not have this option, then you may have to fill out an initial application or submit your semester request.
