Metropolitan Community College supports an integrated learning experience for students with disabilities. Each 十大娱乐彩票平台 campus has a Disability Support Services (DSS) office that provides services for students with documented disabilities. Arrangements can be made for aids and adjustments to help ensure equitable access to 十大娱乐彩票平台's programs and services.
The campus DSS office also has information about the existence and location of services, activities and facilities accessible to and usable by persons with disabilities.
All college websites must comply with college information accessibility policies, procedures, standards and Section 508 laws. We aim for conformance with WCAG 2.0 level AA. If you notice accessibility issues with our website, please contact our Accessible Technology Coordinator.

Transitioning from high school to college
Concerning students with disabilities, the responsibilities of colleges and their students are significantly different from those of elementary and secondary schools and their students. Please review the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Civil Rights' "Students with Disabilities Preparing for Postsecondary Education: Know Your Rights and Responsibilities," or contact the DSS office at your 十大娱乐彩票平台 campus for more information.
To qualify
Contact your campus DSS office each semester in which you wish to receive accommodations. The DSS Coordinator will work with you to determine what disability documentation/information is needed to provide accommodations. Accommodations are determined on a case-by-case basis. View additional information about DSS policies and procedures.
Students can contact DSS to request accommodations at any time during their education, but early notification can allow for more time to make arrangements.
