Steps to Accessing Support Services for Students with Disabilities

Students with disabilities should make their request for services/accommodations to the Support Services Department. It is recommended that this be done at least eight weeks before classes begin so that the necessary accommodations can be arranged prior to the start of classes. Moraine Park Technical College may request a student to submit medical or other diagnostic documentation of their disability prior to receiving requested accommodations.

Meeting with Support Service Personnel
Bring current records/assessments documenting disability and/or educational needs. If documentation is not available, referral will be made to appropriate outside agencies for assessment.

Services for the Deaf/Hard of Hearing
Moraine Park provides comprehensive services for students who are deaf/hard of hearing. Interpreters can be provided for classroom lectures, labs, practicums or any other need related to a student's educational plan.
