Accommodations
To request reasonable accommodations, academic adjustments, and/or auxiliary aids, 学生必须通过联系残疾服务协调员并提供残疾文件来启动该过程. The student’s documentation must include the following information:
- 由合格的临床医生/健康专业人员对学生的病情作出明确和当前的诊断(“当前”可能取决于诊断的性质);
- Relevant educational, developmental, and medical history;
- The tests and assessments used to arrive at the diagnosis;
- A description of the functional limitations of the condition (i.e. 诊断出的疾病是否对主要的生活活动造成了实质性的限制, such as learning?);
- 由合格的专业人员推荐的特殊住宿,并由诊断和功能限制支持.
Chadron州立大学有权拒绝合理住宿的要求, academic adjustments, 和/或辅助工具,如果文件不符合上述标准, or if a student fails to provide documentation.
Obtaining documentation, including the cost, is the responsibility of the student. If the initial documentation is incomplete or inadequate, CSC has the right to request additional documentation, the cost of which would also be the responsibility of the student.
Timelines: A student may apply for accommodations at any time in the semester. 但是,住宿不能追溯适用于课程作业. Therefore, CSC鼓励希望申请住宿的学生在课程开始前或诊断后尽快与残疾服务协调员联系.
目的是提供合理的住宿、学术调整和/或辅助帮助 is to allow the student to demonstrate his or her knowledge of the subject matter despite the presence of a disability; not to lower program and/or class standards but to “level the playing field” and prevent intentional or unintentional discrimination against persons with disabilities. 学院有权维持其学术要求和标准.
