Requirements for Documenting Accommodations
Students who would like to receive the support that is listed in the special menu of services for students with diagnosed disabilities must submit an educational assessment, completed within the last two to three years, to the Director of the Student Academic Support Services. Documentation will include the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) and the Woodcock-Johnson Standard Achievement Battery. Alternate achievement assessment will be considered with the approval of the Director of Student Academic Support Services. Both numeric scores and a narrative report, which interpret a perceived or diagnosed learning disability, are required. Additional materials, such as an Individual Educational Plan (IEP), may also be helpful. The timely submission of documentation is required for the planning of specialized advising, preferential registration, and the implementation of the appropriate accommodations, allowing each student to have equal access to the educational opportunities provided by the college.
