Access and ADA Services Office

The Access and ADA Services Office at MACC is committed to providing equal access for students with disabilities as they pursue their academic and personal goals. Students with documented disabilities may be assigned reasonable and appropriate academic accommodations in accordance with Federal laws including Section 504 of the 1973 Rehabilitation Act and the 1990 Americans with Disabilities Act if those accommodations are necessary to ensure equal access. MACC is committed to equal opportunities for persons with disabilities without regard to disability in the recruitment of, admission to, participation in, treatment in the programs and activities operated and sponsored by MACC.

Services from the Access and ADA Services Office are open to any student with a disability.

  • The Access and ADA Services Office advises MACC administration on policies and procedures relevant to students with disabilities and acts as a general information and referral service for disability-related issues.

  • The Access and ADA Services Office strives to educate individuals regarding the abilities and needs of persons with disabilities through coordination of programs and involvement in activities on disability-related issues.

  • The Access and ADA Services Office also provides training for faculty and staff to increase the understanding of the needs of persons with disabilities.

The steps to obtaining accommodations are outlined throughout this handbook; however, here is a quick view of the steps:

  1. Contact the Access Office to let them know you have a disability.

  2. Bring documentation of your disability to the Access Office and make a follow up appointment to register fully with our office.

  3. During the appointment, your accommodations will be determined on a case-by-case basis depending on both the communicated needs of the student and supporting documentation provided by the student.

  4. The Access Office will review the student’s accommodations and the steps to request and use their approved accommodations.
