Student Disability Services

 The college provides assistance for students, faculty, staff, and patients with disabilities and does not discriminate on the basis of disability in its programs, benefits, and services, including the admission and retention of students. Under Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act of 2008 (ADAAA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (Section 504), qualified persons with disabilities are entitled to reasonable accommodations, including modifications to academic requirements and auxiliary aids and services, to achieve nondiscriminatory access to programs, services, and activities of Pacific College of Health and Science. Section 504 and the ADA define a ‘disability,’ with respect to an individual, as (1) a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, (2) a record of such impairment, or (3) being regarded as having such an impairment.

In order to ensure that qualified students with disabilities are not denied the benefits of, excluded from participation in, or otherwise subjected to discrimination in all academic and other programs, services, and activities of Pacific College of Health and Science, as required by law, reasonable accommodations and auxiliary aids and services will be provided unless it is determined that doing so would alter the essential academic requirements of the College program being pursued or to any directly related licensing requirement. These may include modifications to the academic requirements and auxiliary aids and services, including, but not limited to, auxiliary aids and services for students with hearing and visual impairments (readers and such technology as adaptive computer software and hardware, reading machines); note takers; extended or divided time on examinations for students with learning disabilities or reduced physical stamina; adjustments in course load when appropriate; and audio recording classes. Students seeking accommodations should contact, and provide current documentation to, the Student Services Coordinator, who is designated as the Disability Support Services Officer for the college.
