How can accommodations help me?
- The purpose of accommodations is to eliminate or minimize any disadvantages your disability presents while meeting the standards of admission and accomplishing the “core competencies” of your program.
- Accommodations can support students both in class and with assignments and tests.
- Through your accommodations, you can also get access to support like one on one academic skill training and use of assistive technology.
