Guidelines for Documenting a Disability
Any student with a documented disability is eligible to register for services.
Documentation should be completed by an appropriately credentialed practitioner (who is an impartial individual and not a family member of the student). 学生s should submit documentation of their disability prior to meeting with the ODS Staff.
Early planning is essential for many of the accommodations provided. 学生s meet with the ODS Staff prior to the start of each semester to review accommodation needs. All students 必须 submit their verification form(s), as well as a completed copy of our 联络资料封面.

- 资质: Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scales -IV (WAIS-IV), with all subtest scores is the preferred instrument.

- Actual test scores and subtest scores 必须 be provided. Standard scores are required; percentiles and grade equivalents are not acceptable unless standard scores are also included.
