Grinnell College is committed to making reasonable accommodations for students with diagnosed or identified disabilities. Academic accommodations may include reduced course loads, extended time on exams, note takers, or books in auditory format. Planning for accommodations is the responsibility of the student in conjunction with his or her adviser and the director of academic advising. For other accommodations, students may contact the Office of Academic Advising to be put in touch with the College's ADA compliance officer or the appropriate office, such as Dining Services, Housing, or Facilities Management. Students requesting accommodations must provide the College with current, written diagnostic evaluations of their disabilities that include recommendations for appropriate accommodations.
