Reasonable Accommodations

CNCC provides reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities once the need for such accommodations is made known by the student to appropriate personnel. Some accommodations are provided through auxiliary aids and services, others may require modifications to academic procedures and practices. All accommodations must be related to disabilities defined as substantially limiting a major life activity. Not all requests for accommodation may be determined to be reasonable and/or appropriate. Simply because a student received support at another institution or in elementary/secondary school does not guarantee he/she will receive it at CNCC (or any other higher education institution). Whether a request for an accommodation is reasonable and/or appropriate is a decision that takes into account the individual need of a student, the resources available to CNCC, whether the accommodation is related to the limitation and whether it affects the essential elements of a course or major area of study. The following services (such as auxiliary aids and/or accommodations) provided by Accommodations and Disability Services are commonly utilized by students and are considered reasonable accommodations for the CNCC: alternative testing, alternative text and note-taking support. This list is not all inclusive; other accommodations can be provided depending upon a student needs.
