Procedures for Obtaining Academic Accommodations
Student Responsibilities:

1. Student must be enrolled in Sierra College classes and provide the SAS office with a written verification of disability including identification of educational limitations due to the disability.

2. Each semester, and/or as needed during the semester, the student must schedule an appointment to meet privately with a SAS certificated faculty member to request academic accommodations. The student may, at any time, also request the accommodation directly from the classroom faculty member.

3. The SAS certificated faculty member will evaluate the requested accommodation and complete a Disabled Student Services Academic Accommodation Certification form. A copy of the form will be provided to the student and a copy will be maintained in the student's SAS file.

4. If a student disagrees with the accommodation he/she should contact the SAS certificated faculty member to meet and discuss the accommodation. If the student continues to disagree with the accommodation he/she will be referred to the district's DSPS Coordinator or designee.

5. The district SAS Coordinator or designee will discuss and confer with the SAS certificated faculty member, the class instructor and other resources as appropriate to review the student's disability and make a determination within 5 (five) instructional days from the date the student contacted the Coordinator.

6. If the student is still not satisfied with the disposition of the accommodation, the district SAS Coordinator will refer the request to the SCCD ADA/504 Compliance Officer. The SCCD ADA/504 Compliance Officer will confer with all necessary parties and make a final determination on behalf of SCCD within 30 (thirty) instructional days from the date the Certification form was signed.

I understand these procedures and agree to abide by them.
