I don't know how ACE could require the use of a particular proctoring business as that is a monopoly.  However, it seems when government agencies make policies, they can basically do whatever they want.

ACE is not a "government agency," it's a private organization... Which, of course, is also free to do as they please, within limits of law.

Thank you for correcting me Dave.  If ACE forces us to use ProctorU, isn't that a monopoly?  Might it be illegal or at best unethical?  

For millions of Americans who have don't live in urban or suburban locations, forcing us to use ProctorU could be discrimination, in a sense.  I live in an area where Internet bandwidth is antiquated.  Most residents in my county are forced to live with 3mbps or less b/c companies like CenturyLink have monopolies on telecom services & refuse to upgrade our utilities.  My bandwidth doesn't allow me Skype or use other face-to-face video so I cannot have ProctorU running while testing.  I'm ranting but these are things edu services don't consider when they force us to use ProctorU.
