文档的指导方针

Documentation of a disability may come from different sources but begins with the individual's own report and is supplemented by medical information from clinical providers, 教育评估, 教师的观察, or from other support systems that can shed light on the challenges that need to be addressed. This documentation helps our office use its expertise and experience to determine the types of accommodations and 服务 needed. 

Proper medical documentation and educational assessment is essential to understanding the functional challenges that students are experiencing and must be submitted in order to receive accommodations. 学生 who find provision of documentation to be a barrier may contact or be referred to the 无障碍资源中心 for consultation and advice. You may also contact our office if you have any other related questions. 

如果你是一个新学生, we advise updating and gathering relevant documentation during the spring of your senior year in high school so that you can meet the June 1 deadline for housing requests and/or the August 1 deadline for academic requests. 如果您需要一个例外的规定的最后期限，请与我们联系. 

It is your responsibility to obtain and supply the college with all necessary disability information. 学院不提供全面的测试或评估. 如果需要, we can assist you in finding local providers or clinicians who can do psychoeducational testing. 清晰的, 全面的, and current documentation must be submitted with sufficient time for it to be reviewed and for any necessary accommodations to be arranged. Insufficient information or late documentation may result in delays in receiving accommodations. 

ARC does not have access to information you provided to Counseling 服务 or 健康 服务. You must make a formal request and sign a release in order for them to send it to us.
