How To Receive Accommodations

1. Apply to HCC. Please print your application and congratulations letter. Bring this with you when you first visit admissions and the general counselors at the campus of your choice.
   
   
   
2. Take your official transcript to the general counseling office. Have a copy of your transcript sent to your home and bring the unopened copy with you when you visit a general counselor. We will break the seal and it will become your official transcript. A general counselor will review your transcript and determine which placement test is appropriate for you.
   
   
   
3. Meet with the general counselor for the campus location that is a testing site. Please bring two (2) forms of ID (driver’s license/picture ID and Social Security card, insurance card, etc.) After the test, a general counselor will review your placement test scores and determine appropriate classes for you. Additionally, a general counselor can provide you with a degree plan on request.
   
   
   
4. Schedule an appointment with a DSSO counselor at your chosen campus once you have completed your application online, testing, degree plan and course selection. Bring the following documentation to the meeting with your DSSO counselor:
   
   – a copy of your FULL and individual evaluation from your ISD
   
   – a copy of your last ARD meeting
   
   – documents from your physician, psychiatrist, and/or psychologist that indicate your current disability and how it may impact the educational process
   
   
   
5. Visit with an ADA counselor each semester. Accommodations are granted on a semester-by- semester basis. You MUST visit with an ADA counselor each semester to obtain a current accommodations letter.
