Students With Disabilities

Students with Disabilities (including short-term impairments): If you are a student with a documented disability and you believe you will need accommodations or academic adjustments for a class, it is your responsibility to contact the Office of Disability Support Services at 860 343-5879 or email Hilary Phelps hphelps@mxcc.edu. To avoid any delay in receipt of accommodations or academic adjustments, you should contact the Office of Disability Support Services as soon as possible. In response to your request, the Office of Disability Support Services may ask you to provide supporting medical documentation, diagnostic test results or professional prescriptions to evaluate your request for the accommodations or academic adjustments. The Office of Disability Support Services may also obtain its own professional determination of whether specific requested accommodations or academic adjustments are necessary. Please note that accommodations or academic adjustments cannot be provided until approved and an accommodation letter from the Office of Disability Support Services has been received by faculty and student. If you experience a temporary impairment, medical condition, [or are pregnant,] and it interferes with your schoolwork, call Hilary Phelps, Disability Services Provider 860 343-5879 hphelps@mxcc.edu
