Provide the Coordinator with the appropriate documentation of the disability to substantiate the need for accommodations. Documentation should be current, having been assessed within the last three years. Disabilities staff reserve the right to request additional documentation in determining the need for reasonable accommodations. Resources, including various diagnostic testing sites, are available from Disability Services. Develop an accommodation plan with the Coordinator each semester.
Students are responsible for completing specific forms to request accommodations.
Students are also responsible for understanding office policies and procedures as presented during the intake meeting with the Coordinator. Inform the Coordinator if accommodations are not sufficient, and of changes regarding the disability that may require alterations in the accommodation plan. It is essential to plan ahead for accommodations and services. The accommodation plan frequently involves several college personnel, and planning helps ensure that the services will be available as needed. It is an office policy that academic accommodations be requested two weeks prior to the beginning of each semester.
