The BYU Testing Center is on the second floor of the Heber J. Grant Building (HGB). This week it's open 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, with the last test handed out at 9 p.m. Monday it closes earlier: the last test goes out at 6 p.m. On Saturday it runs 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and it's closed Sunday.
Everything here is from the Testing Center's website, read Nov. 9, 2026. Hours are posted week by week, and finals have their own schedule, so check testing.byu.edu before you go. Questions: 801-422-6147 or testing@byu.edu.
Hours for the week of Nov. 9, 2026

The time that matters is "last test handed out." Arrive after it and you won't get a test, and the Testing Center says you can't stay to finish after it closes. When an exam has a special end date, the listed time is the last possible time you can start. Our finals week survival guide explains why this catches students during finals.
Tuesday closure: the Testing Center closes 10:45 a.m. to noon on Tuesdays for Devotional and Forum. If you've checked out a test by 10:45, you can keep working. See our devotionals and forums guide.
Lines: sign in on the Testing Center site to see the current line condition before you walk over.
Office: the administrative office in 265 HGB is open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays this week, closed noon to 1 p.m. daily for lunch, and closed Saturday.
