One of UDSS major responsibilities is to ensure that your performance as a student is measured by your knowledge and acquisition of course material, not by your disability. To accomplish this, UDSS coordinators make recommendations for test accommodations based on the documented impact of the disability. You and the coordinator will work together to determine the accommodations necessary and for which classes they will be provided. UDSS will keep a copy of your test dates, times, etc. from the syllabi.
Faculty expect students to share in the responsibility for alternative arrangements.
Be sure you talk with each instructor early in the semester. Unless you have the instructor s approval and it has been confirmed by UDSS, you must schedule exams with UDSS for the same day and time as the exam is being given in your class. It is also helpful to UDSS for you to remind your instructor before each exam that you are taking an exam with us. Call the UDSS office with each test change as soon as it is announced in class. This will ensure that UDSS has the test on the schedule and reassure you that the test will be ready for you when you arrive.
