We are committed to helping you succeed. In order to receive and retain reasonable accommodations, you must:
- Make an intake appointment with Disability Support Services at 253.680.7012 or email dss@batestech.edu, Relay Services 711
- Self-identify as a person with a disability to the college
- Request services from DSS early for timely accommodations (preferably six weeks before starting classes) and engage in the interactive process
- On a quarterly basis, faculty will receive the Letter of Accommodation notice from DSS and/or the student
- The responsibility of providing the academic accommodation does not go into effect until the letter is delivered to the required faculty.
Please note: Faculty will likely receive the majority of the Letter of Accommodation notices during the first 3 weeks of classes, but they can be delivered or modified as needed at any time throughout the quarter.
Services are not retroactive. If a letter is presented in the middle of the quarter, adjustments are only required from that day forward.
Discuss your accommodations with your instructor at the beginning of your class or program to ensure successful program completion.
