Support Services for Students with Disabilities
Students with disabilities in higher education are protected by The American Disabilities Act and Amendment of 2008 & Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. Capital Community College is committed to ensuring that all qualified individuals with disabilities have the opportunity to participate in our educational and employment programs and services on an equal basis.
To request academic adjustments, the student should contact the Disability Services Coordinator to make an appointment. It is the student’s responsibility to provide appropriate documentation that describes their disability in order to determine eligibility for academic adjustments. Adjustments are not provided retroactively, but rather academic adjustments deemed appropriate by the Disability Services Coordinator will be provided from the time of the disclosure and documentation review going forward.
If a student has been approved for academic adjustments, he or she must request academic adjustments from the Disability Services Coordinator each semester.
For appointments or questions about accommodations email us at CA-Disabilities@ccc.commnet.edu.
