Accommodations for Students with Disabilities
Student Accessibility Services (SAS) facilitates individual accommodations for students who have disabilities and who register with and have appropriate documentation on file in SAS. Instructors are notified in writing when students in their classes have disabilities and need accommodations for class work and exams. Examples of accommodations include extension of time on tests, a distraction-free testing location, use of a laptop computer to take an exam, and materials in alternate formats such as large print, Braille, or taped texts. Please note that students with approved SAS accommodations who miss in-class assessments may need an accommodation different from that provided for other students who receive a Dean’s Extension. SAS staff welcome conversations with faculty members to ensure proper coordination of special arrangements for the student while maintaining the integrity of course requirements.
