Technological University
Accommodated
Examinations Policy
(Proposal
38-15)
Senate
Policy 605.1
Any student requiring accommodations due to a documented
disability must provide the instructor of the course notification of needed
accommodations no later than five business days prior to the use of the
accommodations. In situations where fewer than five days' notice is given, the
instructor is encouraged, but not obligated, to provide accommodations. The
instructor will determine, in consultation with the Testing Center in the
Jackson Center for Teaching and Learning, whether these accommodations can be met.
Students who have an accommodation for extended time allowed
on tests shall not be required to spend more than six hours per calendar day in
final examinations. For a student with an accommodation for extended time, this
may imply no more than two examinations per day. To
resolve time conflicts between two overlapping exams (either regular exams or
final examinations), the current practices of the University shall be followed.
