Classroom Accommodations

Classroom accommodations are additional support services and resources that allow students with disabilities to equally participate and benefit from instructional activities in the classroom. Examples include ASL interpreters, captioning, an audio recording of lectures, receiving materials in advance of class, Up to 7-Calendar Day Extension on Assignments, Alternate Participation in Group Work, etc.

IMPORTANT: Students' Classroom Accommodations are now automatically applied and appear in the Classroom Accommodations drop-down.

If a student opts out of using an accommodation:

  • they will no longer appear in the classroom accommodations drop-down for the opted out accommodation.
  • the opted out classroom accommodation will still appear in the student's Letter of Accommodation.
