Students requesting academic accommodations must self-identify and complete this application prior to meeting with the campus coordinator in order to create an Accommodation Plan. In addition, submit any documentation regarding your disability that you may have. A member of our Accessibility Resources team will contact you within 3 business days to schedule an initial interview. It is important to understand that accommodations approved in high school do not necessarily carry over into college.


Accommodation Plan Purpose and Explanation

The purpose of the Accommodation Plan is to inform your instructors of your accommodation needs. The Accommodation Plan allows an opportunity for your faculty to plan for classroom accommodations and make appropriate changes if your accommodations require Extended Time or other testing accommodations.
Accessibility Resources will send the Accommodation Plan to the student's Broward College email address. Accommodation Plans will not be sent to non-BC emails. If you have questions about the approved accommodations, please contact Accessibility Resources immediately.

Once received, it is each student's responsibility to forward their Accommodation Plan to each instructor using their Broward College email.

As the semester progresses, if you have questions about your accommodations, please contact our office at: studentaccessibility@broward.edu
