CCU's services for students with disabilities provide support services, tools, and reasonable accommodations in accordance with ADA section 504 to enable them to fully participate in the academic environment. CCU will work with students in CCU's College of Adult and Graduate Studies on an individual basis to:

  • Meet academic requirements
  • Promote self-advocacy
  • Build a network of resources
  • Create self awareness

Determination of Accommodations

If you are a student who has a documented disability that may affect your ability to participate in a course, you must contact the CAGS Coordinator of Student Services at 303-963-3476 to apply for possible accommodations. Your disability must be documented by a specialist. Upon approval for accommodations, a letter describing the approved accommodations will be issued by the CAGS Coordinator of Student Services to your faculty for each course.

It is your responsibility to discuss with your instructor the accommodations granted before or on the first day of the course. Accommodations are usually reviewed annually unless the disability is temporary. Accommodations are not granted retroactively.

  • Provide official documentation to CAGS Academic Services that supports a need for accommodations.
  • Make a request to the professor in a timely manner regarding testing and classroom accommodations.
  • Need to make the necessary arrangements with their professor regarding how and where the accommodations are provided for extended time for testing.

Faculty:

  • Provide accommodations for extended time for testing.
  • Deny accommodations to students who cannot provide a current Certificate of Accommodation.
  • Acknowledge the request for reasonable accommodations and support a successful learning environment through compassion and sensitivity.
