Academic Accommodations

Every student at 九色视频 is given equal opportunity for participation in classes, academic activities, programs, and extra-curricular offerings. Students who need accommodations in order to fully partake in these activities must submit medical or psychological certification of an illness or condition. Once the University obtains the student鈥檚 completed documentation, we will work with them to make the accommodations.

New Students, Start Here

We offer a variety of classroom accommodations to ensure that you have the best possible academic experience and to help you achieve your academic goals.

Additionally, students who are eligible and provided with an approved accommodation plan will be supported by our Academic Accessibility Specialist throughout their time at 九色视频. This support includes problem solving, promoting self-advocacy, and ensuring all necessary accommodations are provided.

How do I request accommodations?

3 easy steps

  1. Submit written documentation from your medical specialist or licensed psychologist. The age of acceptable documentation is dependent upon the health condition, the student鈥檚 current health status, and his/her request for accommodations.
  2. The documentation should include a list of the classroom accommodations the student would like to use.
  3. The University works with students requesting accommodations on a case-by-case basis. A letter confirming your accommodations will be sent after we obtain complete documentation and work with you to determine the appropriate accommodations.

All medical information is 100% confidential. You can be as discrete as you choose, however, we recommend letting your instructors know about your disability. If you should choose not to inform them, then your instructors will only be notified of the accommodations of which they need to be aware.
