Michigan Tech Accommodated Exams
- Students who require special accommodations for an exam, such as extra time or quiet space during their exam, follow this procedure:
1. The student contacts the Student Disability Services Office to obtain support and complete documentation request for an accommodation. If a request is approved for an accommodation, Student Disability Services will contact the instructor.
2. The student contacts the course instructor(s) at least 5 days prior to each exam to request accommodation arrangements. If the instructor chooses to use the Testing Center for the accommodations, they will make those arrangements with the Testing Center.
3. Once the Testing Center has been contacted by the instructor, the Testing Center will contact the student to make arrangements for the exam.
- Students should not attempt to negotiate accommodations with the Testing Center staff directly.
