It’s hot where I live and I don’t had AC. Are tower fans allowed for airflow or would this be too noisy since exam policies state no background noise?

It's hard to know without knowing how noisy your fan is! I would assume that no background noise means that: no noise, so if the invigilator deems that your environment is too noisy they will ask you to turn it off.
