Does TMCC provide for specialized tutoring for DRC students?
According to the Office For Civil Rights (Students with Disabilities Preparing for Postsecondary Education, July 2002), “…Postsecondary school does not have to provide personal attendants, individually prescribed devices, readers for personal use or student, or other devices of a personal nature, such as tutoring and typing.” As an additional support for students with disabilities, a registered DRC student who qualifies for tutoring assistance based on their documentation may obtain a referral from our office to The Tutoring and Learning Center. The student will be directed to meet with an intake coordinator to receive information about general college tutoring and, in certain cases, may be offered limited additional tutoring in pre-college level academic course work, such as mathematics, English and/or reading.
