Eligibility for use of Disability Support Services (DSS) will be established by a DSS advisor. A letter from a physician, psychologist or other licensed professional clinician certified in the field of disability may be required to validate the student's disability.
Those wishing to use any college service provided to students with disabilities should present written verification to DSS, located in Counseling, Advising and Retention Services. Should the information not be comprehensive or if the documentation is inadequate, the Disability Verification Form will be returned to the student and/or sent to the physician or other certified professional clinician.
For specific procedures, see Disability Support Services.
