Newberry College Verification of Identity Policy

Newberry College issues each student a unique identifier number at the time of application. This ID # follows the student throughout their enrollment. It does not change, so it serves as one method of validation. Upon acceptance the student self-selects a unique password that allows protected access to Jenzabar, the college’s information management system and course management system.

At the time of enrollment, the student is given a unique e-mail address and self-selects a unique password that protects access to the e-mail account. Students who login to Jenzabar or to their e-mail account provide assurances to faculty of their identity for online courses requiring interactions via discussion boards, establishing written patterns between instructor and student, or other course related written exercises and assessments.

Newberry College does not charge additional fees for verifying student identity upon initial enrollment. Students enrolled in courses which require proctored assessment may take those exams free of charge on the Newberry College campus. Students taking a proctored assessment online may be required to use a proctoring service such as ProctorU.  Fees for using these third-party services are not included in regular tuition and fees and are the responsibility of the student.
