Accommodations are determined on a case by case basis and are provided based on functional limitations of the documented disability.

The goal of accommodations are to give the student with a disability equal access to the learning environment. Individualized accommodations are not designed to give the student an advantage over other students, to alter a fundamental aspect of the course, nor to weaken academic rigor.

 

Common accommodations include:

  • Reduced distraction testing
  • Extended time on exams
  • Notetaking services
  • Assistive technology
  • Captionists/Interpreters
