Presentation College is committed to ensuring equal learning opportunities for all students, and provides students with emotional, learning, or physical disabilities reasonable accommodations in accordance with the College’s procedures.
Presentation College will make
reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities who
officially disclose disabilities. Reasonable accommodations are
those that do not fundamentally alter the nature of the program,
that can be readily achieved without undue financial or
administrative burden, and that can be provided without lowering
academic and other essential performance standards. Each person
who has met the academic and technical standards for admission
to or participation in the College programs will receive the
educational opportunities, programs and activities in the most
integrated setting appropriate.
To be eligible for accommodation, the
student must contact the Career and Learning Institute at (605)
229-8581. This contact must be made as early as possible. Each
student may be required to submit medical or other diagnostic
documentation of disability and limitations and to participate
in additional evaluation before receiving requested
accommodations. Each student will be responsible for making
timely and appropriate disclosures and requests for
accommodations and for actively participating in the securing of
his or her accommodations and auxiliary aids. This includes,
when appropriate, applying for funding for specialized support
services from vocational rehabilitation agencies.
