Requesting Accommodations for the Placement Assessments
Students requesting ADA accommodations for placement assessments must submit proper documentation to the Disability Services Coordinator. Documentation review can take a week or more, so please submit your documentation as soon as possible to allow time for you to take the assessments and register for your selected Connection Day date.
If you are requesting accommodations, DO NOT follow Step 2 to the “Take the Math Assessment” or “Take the Writing Assessment” links on the Placement Assessment page. Instead, you may skip directly to Step 2. Once your documentation is reviewed, you will be directed to alternate assessments that reasonably meet your accommodation requirements.
To request accommodations, please send the following:
Disability Services Intake Form
