Student Responsibilities Acknowledgement
It is the student’s responsibility to do the following in order to receive accommodations from the CEU-SJC Disability Resource Services (DRS) while attending college.
- Provide the DRS with appropriate documentation, as required by ADA, of my disability to verify my initial eligibility. This may include medical records, psychological evaluations, and high school special records. It may be required that I provide updates of such documentation.
- Discuss functional limitations caused by my disability and assist the Disability Resource Services in determining which accommodations are appropriate.
- Meet with Disability Resource Services each semester to review my classes, academic progress, and arrange needed accommodations for the new semester.
- Take responsibility for my education at CEU-SJC by obtaining assistance from other student services such as academic advising, the library, tutoring labs, college success workshops, etc. I will also make contacts with instructors and service providers when appropriate.
- Contact Disability Resource Center when changes occur, services are interrupted for any reason, or a problem occurs with a service provider.
- Adhere to the CEU Student Code of Conduct, college policies, and attendance requirements to include:
- Attendance requirements for each class.
- Faculty members must approve all excused absences.
- Cooperate by attending scheduled appointments, training on adaptive equipment, or other scheduled activities of the DRS.
- If I do not show up within 15 minutes of the start of class, the note taker, interpreter, or other service provider will leave the class and report the absence to the DRS office.
- If 3 consecutive classes are missed (without receiving prior approval) or if there is a pattern of missing classes on a regular basis, services will be suspended until after you meet with the DRS Director.
- Maintain borrowed equipment in good condition and return in a timely manner (end of semester). If borrowed equipment is not returned when agreed upon, a hold can be placed on the student’s registration and grade transcript.
