To receive accommodations, it is the responsibility of a student to self-identify to the Disability Services staff and provide current documentation of disability in order to receive reasonable accommodations. Services cannot be provided for a student if Northampton Community College does not know of a student's disability nor have on file relevant documentation.
In addition to providing current documentation of disability, students must meet with a member of the Disability Services staff for a preservice appointment and discussion regarding the nature and impact of their disability as well as their academic strengths and needs.
