Academic Accommodations

At Mid-State, reasonable and effective accommodations are defined as adjustments or modifications provided in the academic setting that give students with a disability equal access to education and the ability to participate. Students with a disability must be able to meet the admission, program, and course completion requirements of Mid-State with or without reasonable accommodations.

  • Transition services
  • Remedial education
  • Schedule modification
  • Service coordination with other agencies
