Disability Statement
North Central Kansas
Technical College
Students with Special Needs
North Central Kansas Technical College is
dedicated to providing equal opportunities in post-secondary
education to academically qualified students with disabilities who
demonstrate a reasonable expectation of College success. Students
with disabilities attending NCKTC are integrated as completely as
possible into the College atmosphere.
North Central Kansas Technical College does not offer a specialized
curriculum for students with disabilities. The College requests
input from students to assess individual needs and determines what
resources are available for meeting those needs.
North Central Kansas Technical College acknowledges that traditional
methods, programs and services are not always appropriate or
sufficient to accommodate the limitations experienced by some
qualified persons with disabilities. When a student’s disability
prevents him/her from fulfilling a course requirement through
conventional procedures, consideration will be given to
alternatives, keeping in mind that academic standards must be
maintained.
Students requesting services are required to submit documentation to
determine eligibility in accordance with Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act
of 1990 (ADA). The documentation provided to NCKTC should be medical
or other diagnostic information that confirms his/her disability and
limitations, and should be current (within the past three years).
Each student is expected to make timely and appropriate disclosures
and requests, at least four weeks in advance of a course, program,
or activity for which accommodation is requested (or as soon as
realistically possible).
