On-Campus ACT

  • The On-Campus ACT is accepted only at The University of Akron and cannot be transferred to other universities and colleges.
  • The test cannot be administered during October. 
  • We score the answer sheets so your scores will be available at The University of Akron Office of Admissions within several working days rather than waiting for them to be returned by ACT. 
  • Examinees should contact staff at cctesting@uakron.edu or 330-972-7084 to schedule
  • Fees may be paid online using a debit or credit card.  
    • On-Campus ACTs can be administered by appointment during CTC Testing Services office hours in Simmons 304 ($65). Students may be scheduled to test in small groups. Scheduling is based on availability of testing space, staff, and scheduling requirements from ACT. 
    • You may choose to schedule a private On-Campus ACT during office hours in Simmons 304 ($155). 
    • Fees are non-refundable.
      • If you scheduled an appointment during office hours, you may reschedule or cancel by contacting cctesting@uakron.edu or 330-972-7084 up to 2 business days before your appointment. Any refunds must be requested in writing and have proof of cancelation or rescheduling 2 business days in advance of appointment. 
      • If you do not show for the test after registering, you will have to pay the fee again to take the test at a later date.
