Requesting Disability Services
It is important to understand that in the post-secondary learning environment, a potential student must establish that they are otherwise qualified by meeting the academic and technical standards required for admission. Services to accommodate a disability cannot alter the content of a class.
Prior to requesting Disability Services at Alpena Community College (ACC), an individual must:
- Be officially admitted to ACC
- Complete placement-testing requirements
After completing the above requirements, an individual requesting Disability Services must:
- Make their disability known. An interview may be scheduled by contacting the Dean of Students;
- Provide disability documentation that meets standards set by Alpena Community College.
Additional information regarding the purpose of, and general guidelines for, disability documentation.
More detailed information about ACC’s Disability Services policies and procedures is available in the Access for Students with Disabilities publication: Students With Disabilities
