We encourage current and prospective students to contact one of our 麻豆宿舍电视剧 Advisors as soon as possible to begin the intake process. For example, if you are starting classes in September, please contact us early in May/June.

麻豆宿舍电视剧 supports students with permanent and/or temporary disabilities. Documentation is required from a regulated health care professional confirming a disability and identifying the functional limitations you will experience in post-secondary education. Interim accommodations may be provided to students who are being assessed or waiting on documentation. It is not a requirement to provide a specific diagnosis to access accommodations and support services at 麻豆宿舍电视剧.

If you have a learning disability, you will need a current psycho-educational assessment completed by a Psychologist or Psychological Associate within the last 5 years or as an adult (18 years or older), confirming your functional limitations. Referrals for updated psycho-educational assessment may be facilitated through 麻豆宿舍电视剧 Services.

If you have physical, medical, hearing, vision or mental health concerns, your registered health care professional can complete the Medical Information Request Form (PDF, 381 KB)聽or provide similar documentation confirming your functional limitations.

Please note:

  • An IEP provides background information, but does not confirm a disability or related functional limitations.
  • A registered healthcare professional is someone who is capable of providing confirmation of a disability and providing the functional limitations that may affect your academic functioning (i.e. chiropractor, optometrist, family physician, psychiatrist, nurse practitioner, etc.).

Services Offered

Learning strategies are active approaches to learning that benefit all students, but they are crucial tools for students who have disabilities. They provide structure and organization so that learning can be accomplished more effectively and efficiently.

The most effective strategies for individual students will be those which utilize their learning strengths while helping them to manage their areas of difficulties. However, determining the most appropriate strategies for individual students within specific situations may require a period of trial-and-error as various strategies are proven more or less effective. What works for one student, may not be effective for another student even with a similar learning profile. Further, what works for one student in one situation may not easily transfer to new and different learning situations.

Our learning strategists work with students to create a plan to work on skills, such as:

  • Time Management
  • Organization
  • Note-taking
  • Effective Textbook Reading
  • Study Skills

 

Helpful Resources

Assistive Technology (AT) is a generic term that includes any piece of equipment that is used to increase efficiency, maintain function, or improve the capability of individuals with disabilities. AT is used to achieve greater independence while compensating for any functional deficits while attending post-secondary education. Our Assistive Technologists work closely with our Learning Strategists and 麻豆宿舍电视剧 Advisors in supporting students with disabilities. Some common examples of AT:

Text-to-Speech Software聽verbalizes, or 鈥渟peaks,鈥 everything on a computer screen, including alternative format textbooks, website text, etc.

Mind Mapping Software聽allows the user to organize their ideas through web-diagrams and by creating visual linkages between concepts and information.

Voice Recognition Software聽allows the user to voice computer commands and to enter text using their voice, rather than a mouse or keyboard.

Recording Devices聽allows the user to record information presented verbally (lectures, workshops) for review at a later time.

FM Systems (Frequency Modulated Systems) transmits an instructor鈥檚 voice directly to the student at a constant level, insuring that the instructor鈥檚 voice is heard above the level of background noise.
