红唇直播,student academic accommodations and accessibility policy.

General Terms
This Policy assumes that success in college or higher academic institutions is largely up to the
students, thus, accommodations are not provided to change course syllabi or requirements for
particular students but only to provide support and reasonable modifications in the format of course
materials for eligible students with the approval of the responsible faculty.
The 红唇直播 declares its adherence to principles of accessibility of
physical environment, under which the university has undertaken key steps to make the AUCA
environment accessible for all groups of individuals without discrimination. The AUCA campus as
well as its organizational culture are meant to be accessible to all groups and individuals.

Eligibility for Services and General Procedure

If a student is enrolled in one or more courses at AUCA and has a disability that limits their access to
the classroom or ability to fully engage with the class materials, affecting academic achievement, the
student may be eligible for academic accommodations.
If the student seeks听academic accommodations or adjustments, they must contact and register with
Academic Advising Office as a student seeking accommodations.听The Advising Office is the entity
that coordinates the process for academic accommodations on campus.
The student (usually at the beginning of their freshman year) must initially complete an
Accommodations Request and meet with an Academic Advising Office staff member. Eligibility is
based on information gathered during this initial meeting,听past educational experiences and
accommodations, and disability documentation. The documentation must be current, provide a clear
diagnosis by an appropriate medical professional, and specify the functional limitations in an
academic setting related to the disability. Prior to proceeding with determination of the
accommodations, Academic Advising Office staff might request that the student provide additional
documentation from providers, recommended by AUCA.
General eligibility criteria include but are not limited to: physical disability including, neurological
conditions, sensory organ impairments, musculoskeletal impairments, emotional or mental health
disorders, respiratory conditions, digestive ailments, learning disabilities, and organic brain
syndromes.

Documentation Guidelines

Students who request academic accommodations from AUCA must provide diagnostic information
regarding their disability. The information is useful in determining accommodations. We ask students
to provide the most current documentation of their disability, which should include some or all of the
below listed items:
鈼� A letter from a current or recent treatment provider that identifies the diagnosis and current
treatment plan

鈼� A psychological or neuropsychological evaluation if necessary, conducted by a professional
psychiatrist or psychologist trained in diagnosis
鈼� A letter from a school (guidance) counselor (for freshmen students) containing information on
conducted psychological or educational assessment and (provisional) diagnoses
AUCA reserves the right to request reassessment or additional updated documentation when
questions arise regarding previous assessment or previous service provisions. Reassessment can be
requested by the Academic Advising Office representative during the initial meeting with the student
when documents provided by the student are outdated, incomplete, or contain obvious mistakes or
inconsistencies. AUCA and the Academic Advising Office have a right to recommend that a student
see trusted providers who could complete or update the initial documentation. AUCA declares no
conflict of interest related to medical referrals and recommendations made to students requesting
accommodations.

Accommodations Committee

The Accommodations Committee will meet at the beginning of each semester, when necessary, to
determine specific accommodations after a student has requested accommodations within the first
month of the semester and upon having an initial consultation with the Academic Advising Office.
The Accommodations Committee is an entity that is comprised of the following representatives on a
case-by-case basis: Academic Advising Office representative or Head, Medical Office representative,
and the faculty member teaching the course. The student seeking accommodations is expected to
attend the meeting or a portion of the meeting. The student鈥檚 parents can attend the meeting with the
Committee鈥檚 approval. Specialists of the Center for Teaching, Learning, and Technology
(CTLT)may be included or consulted in order to assist faculty and students in modifying course
content to meet a student鈥檚 particular needs. Counseling Service staff can be included or consulted if
the counselor is familiar with the student鈥檚 difficulties. Also, the relevant academic Department Chair
can be invited to the meeting if necessary.

Decision process and decision effectivity

The decision of whether or not to grant any accommodations is made solely by the Accommodations
Committee. The list of accommodations granted in each case is approved only by the Committee.
The approval of requested accommodations might be made over the course of more than one meeting
of the Committee, based on the necessity to clarify the appropriateness of requested accommodations.
All faculty and students are expected to respect the Committee鈥檚 judgment and final decision.
The members of the Committee are to keep the information on the students requesting
accommodations strictly confidential.
Accommodations Committee has the right to refuse to provide specific accommodations if:
鈼� 听The request is not made within the timeline and procedures as specified in this handbook.
鈼� 听It constitutes a substantial change or alteration to an essential part of an academic program
or course.
鈼� 听It poses a direct threat to the health and safety of others.
鈼� 听It poses undue financial hardship on the university.

completed.
