Accommodations and Support Services

Reasonable accommodations are adjustments to policies, practices and procedures that “level the playing field” for students with disabilities, as long as such adjustments do not lessen academic or programmatic requirements.

 

Accommodation plans and services are designed to match the disability-related needs of each student, and are determined according to documented needs and the student’s program requirements.

 

Accommodations are determined case by case, after Disability Services considers both the student’s needs as described in their disability documentation and the technical academic standards of their course or program.

 

Faculty may also consult with Disability Services on the final determination of accommodations for each of their courses and for each student. Some accommodations may be appropriate in one course or program, but not in another.
