Overview

The UIC Office of Testing Services (OTS) serves three major groups:  the students and academic units of The University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC), the clients and staff of the UIC Counseling Center, and the general population of metropolitan Chicago.  OTS is a leading member of the National College Testing Association (NCTA), and the Consortium of College Testing Centers (CCTC).

OTS provides test administration, test information, test evaluation, and test scoring services, and is an Open Testing Center for more than a dozen major UIC and National testing programs.  In addition to administering well over 30,000 exams annually, OTS also scores more than 250,000 classroom exams each academic year, and answers thousands of walk-in and telephone inquiries.  OTS programmers also work with UIC faculty and staff to design exam and survey forms, and to develop systems for reporting and interpreting exam and survey results.  To learn more about the professionals on the staff of OTS, see the OTS Staff Directory.

How to Find Us

OTS is located in the Student Services Building (SSB) on the East Campus of the University of Illinois at Chicago.  A short distance south and west of Chicago's Loop, on the northwest corner of Racine and Harrison streets (1200 West, 600 South), OTS is readily accessible by public transportation as well as by car.  The CTA's Blue Line stops one half-block north of SSB on Racine street, and each of Chicago's major expressways passes within a few blocks of the UIC campus.  SSB is located across the street from the UIC Pavilion, and is within short walking distance of abundant public parking.  For a map of UIC's East Campus, and directions to OTS, click here.
