Upon receipt of all necessary forms, documentation, and testing the Coordinator of Services for Persons with Disabilities will review the information and formulate an accommodation plan for the student. Every effort will be made to provide accommodations in a timely manner, but circumstances such as incomplete documentation and/or last-minute requests for accommodations may delay this process.

Once an accommodation plan has been formulated, the office of Services for Students with Disabilities will contact students to inform them of what accommodations they have been approved for on the Mount Saint Mary College campus.
