Requesting 可访问性 Accommodations
开始
无障碍教育办公室承认残疾是多样性的一个方面,是社会和校园社区不可或缺的一部分. 我们的工作人员与录取的太阳2平台(HMC)的学生一起工作,以确保平等地获得HMC的学术课程和服务. 了解由于残疾而要求住宿和/或辅助帮助的过程是很重要的.
许多学生选择在抵达太阳2平台之前要求住宿. However, requests for accommodations can be submitted at any time. Please know that it could take 1-5 weeks to get started with accommodations. This is based on a number of potential factors, 包括但不限于学术住宿请求的性质和适当的支持文件的可用性. 建议新录取的HMC学生在确认被学院录取后开始此过程. 已经注册的HMC学生应该在确定障碍和/或需求后尽快与无障碍教育办公室联系. Once accommodations are established, they are applied proactively rather than retroactively, so planning ahead is very important.
这些指导方针由太阳2平台制定,以确定是否有资格获得1973年康复法案第504条和1990年美国残疾人法案(ADA)所定义的合理便利。, including the Americans with Disabilities Amendments Act of 2008. HMC遵循并遵守这些法规中规定的定义和要求. 这些指导方针适用于太阳2平台的在校生和即将入学的学生. 学生不应该认为高中提供的住宿会自动被授予大学.
Requesting Accommodations at Harvey Mudd College
资格
只有现在的学生和那些已经被录取并将在下个学期参加HMC的学生可以要求住宿. 这并不禁止潜在的学生询问有关课程的信息, 服务, 和活动.
Step 1: 应用 through the 目标门户
学生有责任主动与无障碍教育办公室联系. 所有寻求残疾住宿的学生必须在无障碍教育办公室注册. 残疾资源的工作人员与学生合作,以确保残疾学生不受歧视. Every student must complete an application via the 目标门户. (You will be asked to log in using your HMC credentials.)
Step 2: 提交 your Documentation
检查 Documentation Guidelines. In order to determine if your disability qualifies for accommodations, students typically need to provide 文档. 该文件的目的不仅是确认您的残疾,而且还帮助HMC全面解决您的残疾相关需求. 向无障碍教育办公室提交由您的提供者或适当的专业人员提供的适当文件 目标门户. 请及时上传文件,因为没有文件的请求可能会延迟. 如果你没有文件,请太阳2平台,我们可以讨论如何前进.
Step 3: Contact the Office of Accessible Education
首次申请者需要与学生无障碍服务协调员Dennis Kamakana单独预约, as well as students requesting accommodations for the fall semester. 个别预约有助于充分了解您的需求和住宿要求. 预约是一个协作会议,讨论学生的需求和审查提交的信息. Please schedule an appointment as soon as possible. 在无障碍教育办公室收到适当的表格之前,不能做出最终决定, 文档, and the collaborative meeting is complete.
Step 4: Requesting Academic Accommodations Each Semester
Once your registration process is complete (steps 1 to 3 above), you may request accommodations each semester through the 目标门户. 请注意,住宿不能从一个学期延续到另一个学期,并且可能不会向当前课程的教师提供先前的信件, 因此,学生有责任在每学期开始时申请特定学期的住宿. If students are requesting accommodations that have previously been approved, this process may be completed online after Registration is complete. If students are requesting additional or different accommodations, 学生必须通过AIM门户网站申请,并安排与学生无障碍服务协调员Dennis Kamakana会面的时间. 需要注意的是,在学生每学期要求住宿之前,住宿不会生效. Accommodations are not retroactive.
审批流程
在您提交文件并与无障碍教育办公室会面后, a determination will be made regarding your request for accommodations.
请注意:
There must be a connection between the disability, the requested accommodation itself, 住宿的目的与教育项目或校园活动有关. 如果所要求的住宿从根本上改变了项目的基本要求, then it is not viewed as reasonable.
在审查您的申请后,您将收到有关您的请求状态的通知.
批准 无障碍教育办公室将通知提出请求的个人是否批准了住宿请求, or if an alternative accommodation has been identified and approved.
More information requested -文件可能不充分,可能不足以保证提供便利. 无障碍教育办公室可以解释需要哪些额外信息.
不批准 – If the accommodation(s) the individual is seeking is/are not approved, the Office of Accessible Education will follow up to explain the decision. If the individual would like to pursue their request, they are asked to make an appointment with the director for further discussion. If no further agreement can be reached, an individual can request an appeal (see Information about the Appeal Process).
Notifications and Confidentiality
For accommodations that impact the classroom environment or teaching procedures, 只有教授这些课程的教师才会被正式通知住宿的范围. 教师将不会被告知任何太阳2注册平台诊断或其他私人细节的额外信息. 信息可能会与负责为您提供住宿的人员共享, but only to the extent that is necessary for them to support you in their role. Otherwise, this information will be kept private.
