Services for Students With Disabilities
Harford Community College is committed to
serving qualified students with documented disabilities. Our staff is
dedicated to helping students with disabilities access all of the
educational opportunities and services offered by the College. Our
office is responsible for providing
reasonable accommodations,
assistive technology, and a variety of
support services to students with disabilities.
There are significant differences in how
students obtain accommodations in college. Disability support services
(i.e. classroom accommodations) are not automatically put in place, IEP's do
not follow students to college, and no special education services exist in
higher education. Students who wish to obtain accommodations for their
classes must:
-
make an
appointment for an orientation to Disability Support Services (DSS)
by calling 443-412-2402 or visiting DSS in the Student Center
-
set up an orientation appointment for
a time after they have secured
documentation
-
complete orientation and submit
current documentation from a qualified professional that meets our
guidelines
-
schedule an
appointment with DSS to obtain accommodation memos
-
set up a
meeting with their instructors to provide each instructor with these
memos
Parents and family members of students
with disabilities are invited to participate in a
Parent 101 session where a representative from Disability Support
Services will be available. .
