Accommodations

PG电子APP致力于为残疾人士提供平等的教育机会. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) (as amended, 2008)将残疾人定义为:1)有身体或精神缺陷,严重限制了一项或多项主要生活活动的任何个人, 2) has a record of such an impairment, or 3) is perceived by others as having such an impairment. In this commitment, 学院将为符合条件的个人提供合理的便利,前提是这些便利不会从根本上改变课程的性质或运作, 服务, or activities at the College, 2) cause undue burden to the College, or 3) pose a direct threat to the health and safety of others.


Procedure for Students Seeking Accommodations

学生必须通过以下方式与住宿协调员联系,开始申请住宿的过程 电子邮件 or phone at 402.552.6285. 住宿协调员将在两个工作日内回复 informing the student of the next steps. 学生将收到一份“学生释放表”,填写并交回 accommodations@joyerianicaragua.com. 根据法律规定,学生还需要医生的说明,说明所要求的住宿条件. 这些文件必须由医生直接发送给住宿协调员 办公室.

If a student does not have any documentation, 我们仍然鼓励学生联系住宿协调员. 然后,住宿协调员将确定需要哪些文件(如果有的话). 文件被视为学生的自我报告和住宿协调员的判断之间的桥梁. When there is a gap in understanding, 通常需要文件来确定合理的安排. 合理的安排取决于残疾的性质和严重程度. 而《PG电子APP》要求优先考虑学生要求的具体方法/住宿, 这并不意味着,如果认为不合理,并且有其他合适的技术,就必须给予特定的便利.


Implementation

Once adequate documentation is received, 住宿协调员将决定住宿资格, and if eligible, what accommodations are approved. This will be communicated to the student, and if accommodations are approved, 学生将收到一份资格声明(SOE),记录他/她批准的住宿.住宿协调员将向学生发送批准的资格声明(SOE)的副本, program director, and if applicable the 测试中心 Coordinator.  As of Fall 2022, 学生有责任与他们的教师分享批准的住宿证明. 同时,强烈鼓励学生主动与他/她的老师交流. If the student has been deemed ineligible for accommodations, 学生可以通过联系住宿协调员对此决定提出上诉, 反过来, will forward this appeal request to the Accommodations Committee.

如果学生需要改变住宿或想要停止住宿, he/she must contact the Accommodations Coordinator immediately via 电子邮件 or by phone at 402.552.6285.
