Policy Library Accommodations

State Technical College of Missouri complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), ADA Amendments Act of 2008 (ADAAA), Titles I and II of the ADA of 1990, and Sections 503 & 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and state and local requirements regarding students with disabilities. In compliance with federal and state regulations, State Technical College of Missouri will provide reasonable accommodations or services to qualified students with disabilities.

The College will deem a request for accommodation or services reasonable if the request:

• Is based on documented individual needs
• Does not compromise essential requirements of a course or program
• Does not impose a financial or administrative burden upon the College beyond that which is deemed reasonable and customary
• Is within the scope of the College’s control

State Technical College of Missouri defines a qualified student as one whom, with or without reasonable accommodations, is able to perform the essential functions of program or course requirements. The essential requirements of an academic course or program do not need modification to accommodate an individual with a disability.

Final responsibility for selection of the most appropriate accommodation rests with Counseling Services and is determined on a case-by-case basis, dependent upon the nature of the disability.

A student seeking accommodations or services is encouraged to visit Counseling Services to discuss potential academic accommodations or services and begin the review process. Counseling Services will determine the accommodation.
