Access & Disability Services-To Help YOU Succeed!

Don't Struggle! Succeed!

 

Pierce College supports an integrated learning experience for students who may benefit from assistance from Access & Disability services by promoting an environment that is free from physical and attitudinal barriers. Students are encouraged to develop successful learning strategies in collaboration with faculty and staff.  Students with permanent or temporary disabilities may be eligible for services.

Please contact Access & Disability Services (ADS) for more information on required documentation and the process for eligibility.

Services and academic adjustments are designed to ensure that students with a disability have equal access to all college activities and programs.   Examples of accommodations include but are not limited to:

·         Accessible facilities

·         Alternate format of educational materials

·         Alternate testing procedures

·         Sign language interpreters

·         Readers

·         Scribes

·         Volunteer note-taker

·         Adjustable tables and chairs

It is the goal of ADS to provide an open door to any student who believes he or she may need our services. In addition to approved academic adjustments and services, ADS offers educational planning, advising, assistive technology and learning strategies for students.
