Services for Students with Disabilities
Admission & Registration
Admission procedures are outlined in the college catalog and in the schedule of classes published each term. You may also go to the COCC Admissions website, http://new.cocc.edu/default.aspx for more information.
If you believe you will need any special service or accommodation based on disability, it is critical that you contact the office of Services for Students with Disabilities, located on the ground floor of Boyle Education Center (BEC), 383-7583, as soon as possible. Determining what service you are eligible for and making the necessary arrangements to have it in place by the time classes begin often takes time. Ideally, prospective students should contact the SSD office about eight weeks prior to enrollment. Students in high school transition programs will want to make this contact even earlier, about midway through their senior year. This early contact will help us, and you, to do the appropriate planning. COCC will make every reasonable effort to accommodate you even if you do not meet these recommended timelines, and certain accommodations can be arranged without a lot of preplanning. Still, to assure that we are able to provide the service you need, we urge you to make every effort to meet with the SSD office early. (Examples of accommodations where early planning is very important include requests for sign language interpreters, print material in alternate format or specialized equipment.)
