Academic Success with Support from Disability Services Skills
Disability Services
缅北禁地 provides reasonable accommodations to qualified students with disabilities to provide them equal access to all University programs, facilities, services and opportunities. Students with disabilities can request accommodations by engaging in the accommodations process.
How Disability Services Works
The accommodations process is an individualized and collaborative process initiated by the student. The student and the Director of Disability Services explore what access barriers the student encounters in the university environment and what kinds of accommodations can be put in place to remove or mitigate those barriers.
This process is initiated by the student. We recommend starting this process as early as possible to ensure your needs are met before the start of the semester/term. Documentation is to be provided by the student. 缅北禁地 will not request documentation on behalf of the student.
Request
Documentation is to be provided by the student. 缅北禁地 will not request documentation on behalf of the student. Acceptable forms of documentation are:
- Statement of specific disability from a qualified professional (i.e. physician, therapist, counselor, certified educational psychologist, etc.)
- Copies of secondary school records establishing the existence of a disability, and accommodations provided at the secondary level.
- Please note: IEP's and 504 plans may provide helpful insight into what accommodations will benefit the student, but they do not obligate 缅北禁地 to provide the same accommodations.
Please note:
- Reasonable accommodations are determined on a case-by-case basis.
- Accommodations are not retroactive and are only in place from the time they are approved moving forward.
Our office does not have in-depth knowledge of specific course design. As a result, some accommodations listed may not align with course activities. Professors that have any questions or concerns regarding how to implement an accommodation or require any clarification should contact the Director of Disability Services.
Accommodations must be requested every 16-week semester, or 8-week term. Students must initiate the renewal process and are encouraged to request renewals as soon as possible to ensure their accommodations are set up prior to the start of a new term.
