  • To book your test, please select one of the following campuses:
  • A Canadian debit card to pay your test fee

    You'll need to pay your test fee at the Assessment Centre before you enter the exam room on your scheduled test date. The Assessment Centre only accepts payments made with a Canadian debit card. We do not accept cash or credit card payments.

    Valid photo identification

    Valid photo ID must be presented to the Assessment Centre staff before testing begins. Examples of valid photo ID include Sheridan onecard, a current driver’s licence, Ontario photo card, or passport.

    Confirmation from Admissions Office

In some cases, applicants will receive an email from Admissions outlining the same. Be prepared to present either when requested.

    • Personal belongings such as cell phones, electronic devices, notes, and other items are not permitted during the test and must be stored in the storage areas indicated by the Assessment Centre staff.
    • Out of respect for others writing exams, family members will not be permitted to sit in the Assessment Centre during your exam.
