UWG Newnan Testing Services 

To advance the mission of The University of West Georgia, UWG Newnan Testing Services provides high-quality testing services for students, graduates, professionals, and individuals from our surrounding communities. 

We currently service our local UWG Newnan students for make-up testing and SAR (Student Accommodations Report) students for all their testing needs. In addition, we offer testing services for UWG students with the Georgia History Exam, Constitution Exam, and some institutional Departmental Challenge Exams. UWG Online and eCore students may register with us to test here in Newnan. Certification testing for AAB is also available in Newnan. 

Testing times are scheduled by appointment only, and standard testing dates/times are Mondays through Fridays, with the earliest start time of 8:00 A.M. and the latest start time of 4:00 P.M. Alternative scheduling may be available for an additional fee. 

Testing Appointments 

All testing services are offered through appointment scheduling. Arrangements for a test proctoring appointment should be made in advance, preferably 2–3 weeks, to enable the Home Institution or Program ample time to provide the testing materials. The Student/Examinee is responsible for taking the appropriate steps to ensure all testing materials arrive on time. Appointments are made by emailing the Testing Services Office at newnantesting@westga.edu. The Testing office will then provide you a form to complete and submit. Once your request has been reviewed, you will receive a confirmation email.

  • Certification Testing Services are offered in Newnan and are reviewed on an individual test request basis. Please email for more information on fees associated with certification testing.
