Students who have documented disability(ies) or suspect they have a disability that impacts learning may speak with the Accessibility Services Coordinator (ASC) to request reasonable, college level accommodations. In order to receive accommodations a student must meet eligibility requirements which is determined when the student starts the formal request process. Process instructions, intake form, and explanation of supporting documentation are available on the NCC website. A student is required to update the Letter of Accommodations (LOA) each semester and provide a copy of the LOA to each professor in every class each term in which they would like utilize accommodations.
No accommodations will be provided until the student provides the professor with a current letter. The Letter of Accommodations is not retroactive and start the date the student provides it to the instructor.
Each student must attend class independently. Only persons listed on the Letter of Accommodations may support the student in class and are limited to: American Sign Language interpreters and personal care attendants (PCA hired and paid by the student). Aides for academic and/or behavioral support may assist outside the classroom only.
Service animals (ie. Service Dog) need to be registered with the Safety and Security Office and will typically be listed on the Letter of Accommodations.
