Admissions Policy For Disabled Students

The college shall not discriminate against otherwise qualified handicapped persons solely by reason of his/her handicap. This policy extends to persons with identified, specific learning disabilities under provision of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. An "otherwise qualified" person is one who is able to meet all program requirements in spite of his/her disabilities.

Students with learning disabilities are encouraged to self-disclose their disability to be eligible for modified placement testing and appropriate and available classroom adaptations.

Students should provide the Admissions Office with documentation of their disability, including the most recent psychological profile. Students who provide appropriate documentation will work closely with faculty and Learning Center staff who provide instruction, learning and study strategies, self-advocacy skills and consultation. The college also provides preparatory and study skills courses, computer assisted instruction, tutorial services, academic enrichment activities and academic counseling on limited basis.
