My instructor asked me for more information about my disability, what do I do?

Students are not required to share the nature of their disability with their faculty members. If a faculty member requests documentation of your disability or asks you share the nature of your disability, you are within your rights to refuse them and direct them to the Accessibility Services Coordinator.
If you are comfortable sharing the nature of your disability, you are more than welcome to do so, but you should never give your disability documentation to your instructors at any time due to the sensitive nature of the documentation.
If a faculty member asks for that sort of information, we highly encourage you to report this to the Accessibility Services Coordinator (acc@sctcc.edu or Office: 1-448). The coordinator will meet with the instructor and reassure them that if a student has an accommodation plan that have been thoroughly assessed and approved for services.

How do I change or update my accommodations?

To change or update your Accommodation Plan, please set up a Check in Meeting with the Accessibility Services Coordinator by using this scheduling link.

In this meeting, explain to the coordinator the changes you would like to make and how those changes would benefit your academic journey. The coordinator will support you in finding accommodations to support the changes you are looking for and support you in implementing them.

How do I use my accommodations plan?

To implement your accommodations, you must complete a semester request form.
Accessibility Services highly recommends meeting with your faculty and working together to figure out the best methods for implementing your accommodations alongside their semester lesson plans. You are not required to share your disability with your faculty.
If you have accommodations that require Accessibility Services (for example: testing accommodations, interpreting accommodations, universal furniture accommodations, etc.) please contact the Accommodations Specialist (acc@sctcc.edu) or drop by the office (Room 1-448) to get support and next steps.

How do I tell my faculty I have accommodations?

Simply complete the semester request form and Accessibility Services will connect with your faculty and add you to the email. Once your faculty has received the email, your accommodations will be in place for that class.
