NPRC Disability Services Handbook for Students
supportservices@rrcnpa.org; 814-331-6857 (direct line)
I understand I will be able to ask questions as the process of requesting accommodations unfolds. I understand I can learn more about my role and responsibilities throughout the process of advocating for my needs by reviewing the Disability Services Handbook for Students.
I understand that under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), the Office of Disability Support Services (ODSS) may share information and communicate with appropriate College personnel on a need-to-know basis to facilitate the process of determining accommodation eligibility.
I understand I may sign a FERPA Waiver if I would like to allow NPRC to share my disability records with another person.
I understand I may invite a support person to attend ODSS meetings with me and will be given an opportunity to provide the name(s) of those present through my NPRC email at the start of the meeting.
I understand the Office of Disability Support Services is not a “confidential resource” (as defined in the College’s Sexual Misconduct Policy) and may be required to report to appropriate College personnel situations in which a student expresses intent to harm self or others and a student discloses sexual harassment, assault, or related violence.
I understand that my accommodation(s) request will be fully considered when the appropriate documentation has been received.
Documentation from the appropriate licensed professional may be necessary to show evidence of a disability. The Documentation Guidelines can be accessed in the Disability Services Handbook and a condensed version will be provided by an ODSS staff member if they are needed to share with the licensed professional.
