HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES. The VCSD has no obligation to provide updated evaluations for exiting ESE school students. However, the student must provide documentation that reflects the student’s most updated information to help determine reasonable accommodations at the college level. Dual enrolled students are required to comply with DSC’s student disabilities policies and procedures. DSC provides reasonable accommodations at no cost to disabled dual enrollment students who submit written documentation from licensed medical or mental health professionals that state they have disabilities as defined by Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) as it relates to Higher Education. School Individualized Education Plans (IEP’s) are not considered documentation of a disability for college accommodations. Previous accommodations received while in school or at other educational institutions will be re-evaluated to determine appropriateness at DSC. DSC does not provide personal services such as transportation or personal care assistants. Dual enrolled students who request reasonable accommodations based on a documented disability must comply with the following procedures: Students must be accepted for admission at DSC, submit required documentation, and meet with a Student Disability Service (SDS) advisor to complete the intake process. The documentation must show that the student’s disability significantly interferes with one or more major life functions (i.e., seeing, hearing, learning, speaking, or walking). Students must submit documentation in written form on official letterhead signed and dated by a licensed medical doctor, psychiatrist or mental health practitioner and include a complete evaluation with a diagnosis consistent with the Diagnostic & Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 4th edition (DSM-IV-TR). The documentation submitted must clearly state how the disability substantially interferes with the student’s functional limitations within the college academic setting. It is the student’s responsibility to contact a SDS advisor in advance of enrollment to arrange for the accommodations they may need in order to be successful during their DSC educational experience.
