Accommodations for Students with Disabilities |

The most frequently requested testing accommodations are for extended time for exam completion and a separate testing location. Other accommodations might include a test reader, a scribe, or use of a computer. Classroom accommodations include note-taking assistance such as carbonless notepaper or photocopying of notes. Special equipment for students with visual impairments are available in the Nittany Success Center for testing purposes. These descriptions of accommodations are intended to provide a general idea of the types of accommodations that are available through the Nittany Success Center. They are not exhaustive and they are not all-inclusive. To request testing assistance (for students with a documented disability), please complete the Testing Request Form.
