XXI.C   Accommodations for Students with Disabilities

The Resource Office on Disabilities facilitates individual accommodations for Yale undergraduate, graduate, and professional school students who have disabilities and who register with and have appropriate documentation on file in the Resource Office. Faculty members are notified in writing when students in their classes have disabilities and need accommodations for class work and exams. Examples of accommodations include extension of time on tests, a distraction-free testing location, use of a laptop computer to take an exam, and materials in alternate formats such as large print, Braille, or taped texts. The Resource Office staff welcome conversations with faculty members to ensure proper coordination of special arrangements for the student while maintaining the integrity of course requirements.
