Exam Accommodations
Instructor Responsibilities
Exam accommodations are provided to ensure equal academic access for qualified students with disabilities. This student is authorized for test accommodations in accordance with both Federal regulations and University policy. Arrangements to be made by the instructor include:
- Appropriate testing space (quiet, reduced distraction). Contact your Department Assistant early in the quarter if you need assistance with room and/or proctor arrangements.
- Communicate test arrangement details to the student (or delegate a contact person)
- Be available (or designate a TA) for questions during exams, if typically provided to the rest of the class.
- The DRC can provide test scribes or readers, as authorized for students with disability-related needs with advanced notice from you (at least one week prior to exams if possible). Contact Angela Holleman, the Adaptive Technology Coordinator, at adhollem@ucsc.edu.
Note: Test proctors are not required by law. It is up to you whether or not to provide one.
