Educational Support Plans
These are important and students are required to submit a request at the beginning of each semester.
Individualized support plans are provided to instructors if consent is given by the student. The support plan informs the instructors of any special considerations and services required for the student.
Testing Accommodations
Alternative testing accommodations are available when usual testing methods reflect a student’s disability rather than the student’s level of achievement. Testing accommodations are determined after careful review of the documentation provided by the student and an individual consultation between the student and a staff member. Testing services are available for exams to assist the faculty in providing accommodations to meet the legal mandates of ADA and Section 504.

- Large Print
- Reader
- Scribe

Determination of Appropriate Accommodations
