Students with disabilities must self-identify to the Disability Resources and Services Coordinator and must submit written requests for accommodations, academic adjustments, and/or auxiliary aides within a timely manner.  Whenever possible, this request should be made prior to the start of the semester. 

Accommodations, academic adjustments, and/or auxiliary aides are determined on an individual basis and must be requested each semester of enrollment. 

The following procedures can be found in Policy 121 Americans with Disabilities Act of the Eastern Idaho Technical College Policies and Procedures Manual:

  1. Students requesting accommodations, academic adjustments, and/or auxiliary aides must have a documented disability and must self-identify to the Disability Resources and Services Coordinator.
  2. An in-take meeting will be scheduled at which time the following will take place:
    1. The student will provide proper documentation regarding his/her disability. Should documentation not be available, it is the student’s responsibility to obtain documentation at his/her own expense and provide it to the Disability Resources and Services Coordinator
    2. The student will provide a written request of reasonable accommodations, academic adjustments, and/or auxiliary aides being requested as well as a current class schedule.
  3. The Disability Resources and Services Coordinator will review the documentation and requested accommodations, academic adjustments, and/or auxiliary aides.
  4. The Disability Resources and Services Coordinator and the student will meet to discuss the request for reasonable accommodations, academic adjustments, and/or auxiliary aides and the resulting decision.  For approved accommodations, academic adjustments, and/or auxiliary aides, the Disability Resources and Services Coordinator will provide an accommodation letter for each of the student’s instructors.  It is the student’s responsibility to deliver this letter to his/her instructor(s).
  5. Should there be a disagreement with the Disability Resources and Services Coordinator’s decision, the student should, within five days, submit a written appeal to the Dean of Students.  Refer to the Student Appeal Procedures in the Student Handbook.  In the case of disability issues all written appeals should be submitted to the Dean of Students.
