Services for Students with Disabilities
In compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the College provides reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities, including those with learning disabilities. Students must provide relevant documentation by a qualified professional that substantiates eligibility for accommodations. Students should contact the Disability Services Coordinator as soon as they decide to attend NCCC. The coordinator will assist students with academic support and reasonable accommodations. Accommodations will be based upon documented individual needs and course requirements. It is the student’s responsibility to initiate contact with the coordinator in order to receive services. The Wellness Center
is also available to assist students.
Students with disabilities will find NCCC well suited to their needs. The architectural design of the College provides a barrier-free environment. Most of the campus is street level, and there are ramps and elevators where necessary. There are also accessible restrooms, drinking fountains, and telephones.
Inquiries regarding application of and compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 or the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 may be directed to the Disability Services Coordinator, Affirmative Action Officer, or the ADA Coordinator. Any information pertaining to disabilities will be confidential and will not affect the student’s admission to the College.
