Support for Students with Disabilities

Capital Community College is a higher education institution that provides learning opportunities to every student including students with disabilities. We are committed to providing and promoting equal opportunities in all programs and services.

The Office of Student Support Services for Academic Success at Capital Community College provides academic adjustments to qualified students with disabilities. Students can seek ongoing services, support, and advising throughout the academic year.

You are encouraged to make an appointment to receive services. We are located in the Counseling Office in Suite 208D located on the second floor of the college and can be contacted by phone (860) 906-5040 - https://www.capitalcc.edu/student-services/disability/

Each academic adjustment plan may be unique based on each student’s current needs and desires as well as the supporting documentation. For the best experience, planning and open communication between the College’s Disabilities Services Coordinator and the student is necessary every semester academic adjustments are requested. Academic adjustment letters are not created automatically and academic adjustments are not provided retroactively.

In order to assure that academic adjustments will be available for the start of classes, a student must submit to the Disabilities Services Coordinator, Helena Carrasquillo at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the start of classes appropriate documentation from an appropriate provider, which documentation explicitly states the diagnosis of the disabilities, how those disabilities limit one or more major life activities and recommendations for academic adjustments in an educational setting. No other documentation, such as proof of admission to the College or a program nor registration for classes, need be provided by a student.

Thereafter, the Disabilities Services Coordinator and student requesting academic adjustments will meet to discuss options for academic adjustments that the College will provide based on the provided documentation. The Disabilities Services Coordinator may assist a student to register for courses, if requested.

I acknowledge that I have received written directions on the procedure for requesting academic adjustments, including when and to whom to make the request.
