DSS Orientation for Fall 2018 |
Prospective DSS Student
A prospective DSS student is someone with a documented disability that requires accommodations in order to have equal access to college facilities, programs, activities, materials and resources as defined by the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act.
Current DSS students, already receiving accommodations through Disability Support Services, can access services and submit information based on approved accommodations to the forms located on this webpage.
To request testing, access the Permit to Schedule a Test Form (at the bottom of the page) at least 48 hours in advance. Please be advised that tests are only accepted between 8:00am-5:00pm, Monday-Friday.
Faculty Resources
Faculty members can access information that provides additional support and assistance in their efforts to make courses accessible to all students.
In planning a successful transition to college, it is important for students to understand that colleges have different responsibilities from high schools when it comes to providing accommodations for students with disabilities.
