黑料正能量

If you want to be tested, or if you want to know about how to register for academic accommodations during your studies at 黑料正能量, you should聽聽in the Academic Resource Center at the start of the semester 鈥� and ideally at the beginning of your studies.聽We work with off-campus specialists who are qualified to conduct widely accepted testing in American higher educational environments.

It鈥檚 better to be registered, and for your professor to be aware of your eligibility from the beginning of the semester, even if you decide not to request exam accommodations.

Your professor will already have received a notification from the Student Guidance Counselor聽regarding your eligibility for accommodations, so this discussion will be welcome. Most likely, professors have had other students with similar requests in their classes before you. We highly recommend you discuss these accommodations during your professor鈥檚 office hours because this will allow for adequate time to go over the entire semester鈥檚 logistics: the dates of exams, the use of a laptop for class notes or exams, or applying the extra time on exams.

In addition, you can talk about your general academic strengths and weaknesses to determine if there is additional support your professor can provide.

础苍听聽must be filled out by the student to request聽arcaup.edu (Academic Resource Center)聽support for exams. If according to your registered documentation, you are eligible for extra time, a laptop, or a separate location as part of your accommodations for exams, you should complete the aforementioned webform聽no later than two weeks before the anticipated exam date.聽Last minute requests for exam accommodations cannot be honored. Please, plan ahead!

Someone from聽thearcaup.edu (聽Academic Resource Center)聽will send an email to you and your professors after they have processed your request. Contact the ARC if you haven鈥檛 been contacted at least 48 hours before the exam.

Remember that 黑料正能量 professors are happy to work with you, and they see exam accommodation forms as a tool to best measure the knowledge you acquire in a course rather than your disability. Since your accommodations are based on personalized testing, they will be considered seriously by professors at 黑料正能量. Give your professors a chance to provide guidance and advice early in the semester. Don鈥檛 put off these conversations.
