English translation:(after/with/in/for) having passed/taken the due/expected examination with us/in our school/college
Explanation:
Without further context I cannot be more precise on the exact meaning of the words, but that's the overall meaning of the sentence.
Lieterally it means: "having the due examination been taken by him", where "se" (him) refers to the subject of the main clause, probably the student/scholar whom a title/diploma was granted to after his taking/passing the aforementioned exam.

neutral  Olga Cartlidge: Indeed, Senatum / comitia habere etc is common, but the sentence is in parenthesis and should make sense as a complete statement. // E.g. If, whilst due consideration is being given (Abl Temporis) / by way of being duely tested, I remain in your presence.

  -> Apart from "habito" being commonly used in absolute ablatives ("consilio habito", "inspectione habita", etc.), where would the verb for "attended" be, were "se" a misreading for "si? How would you justify the ablative, if not with an absolute form, which?
