Disability Services

Access means more than getting through the door.

We take access seriously, and we're committed to making VCC accessible to students with disabilities. Some VCC students with disabilities study in specialized programs, while others are enrolled in regular programs.

In addition to course and program planning assistance, orientation to the college and instructors, and on-going learning assistance, VCC provides specialized services on an individual basis. Students with disabilities advisors provide exam accommodation, job search assistance, and community resource referrals.

Access to equipment and brailled or taped class material is available, as well as interpreting service for classes, events, and study situations.

To qualify for services, students must have up-to-date documentation of their disability and some of the services VCC offers require advance planning; applicants are encouraged to make an appointment with an advisor four months before classes begin.
