GREETING,
I am a student enrolled in your CLASS NAME course. I plan to use my ANU test accommodations for exams this quarter. LIST THE ACCOMMODATIONS YOU WILL USE. I wanted to inquire about your proctoring plan for the quarter. Will you arrange to proctor exams with accommodations, or will exams be proctored through Testing Services?
Thank you,
