Service for Students with Disabilities
Southeast Community College desires to create an accessible
community where individuals with disabilities have an equal
opportunity to pursue their educational goals, limited only by
their abilities, not their disabilities. To this end, the college
will:
- Provide
direct, reasonable accommodations and support services for
individuals with disabilities.
- Encourage
self-determination, independence, and personal responsibility for
students with disabilities.
- Provide
resources, advocacy, collaborative services, and outreach
throughout the College community.
- Promote an
open and welcoming environment around campus for individuals with
disabilities.
- Inform and
educate the Southeast Community College community about disability-related laws, rules, regulations and policies.
Requesting Accommodations
Southeast Community College provides reasonable accommodations
for students with disabilities to ensure access to educational
programs and services.
Any student with a documented disability should contact the Career
Advising Center to determine eligibility for accommodations. Students who are requesting an accommodation based on a documented
disability are advised to make the request known as soon as
possible to ensure timely service. Students should complete the
Student Request for Reasonable Accommodations form and mail, fax,
email, or deliver it to the Career Advising Center along with the
appropriate documentation of their disability, when
applicable.
If you have a disability, are taking classes on campus and would like to contact the Disability Services Office for assistance, there may be issues that need to be explored to ensure that you are able to access the course and participate effectively. Please contact the Disability Services Office at your earliest convenience.
Please complete the Student Request for Reasonable Accommodations form and fax, email, or mail it to the Career Advising Center. You will then be contacted by someone from the Career Advising Center to discuss your specific accommodation needs. Please indicate the most convenient manner with which you would like to be contacted.
ADA Grievance
If a student believes that an accommodation(s) is ineffective or that they have been denied equal access to appropriate accommodations, modifications, auxiliary aids, or effective communication, and efforts to resolve the issues are unsuccessful, a student may file a grievance. Students are encouraged to seek resolution of the grievance through the informal process before filing a formal grievance. However, students may use the College’s formal grievance procedure to appeal decisions regarding student accommodations, and may do so without first going through the College’s informal grievance process.
