What are exam accommodations for students with disabilities?
Exam accommodations for students with disabilities minimize the impact of the disability by affording students an equal opportunity to demonstrate their knowledge and ability. Eligibility for exam accommodations is determined by CAAR staff on the basis of the student’s disability documentation. Some of the most typical accommodations include an alternate format such as an audiotape, large print, or braille version of the exam; a low distraction room; extended time; and scribe assistance.
